EPM7128AETC100-7

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The Altera EPM7128AETC100-7 is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX 7000AE family. It utilizes CMOS EEPROM technology and operates at a supply voltage of 3.3 V, with a range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V. The device integrates 128 macrocells organized into 8 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), providing 84 I/O pins in a TQFP-100 package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum propagation delay of 5 ns, a maximum operating frequency of 192.3 MHz, and approximately 2500 usable gates. It supports In-System Programming (ISP) via JTAG.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

This component is listed as discontinued or Not Recommended for New Designs. Verification of current availability requires checking authorized distributors for remaining stock or obsolete inventory. Ensure compliance with RoHS status indicated as 'N' in specific distributor records, which may imply lead-based packaging or older manufacturing standards compared to modern environmental directives.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this part when a dense CPLD solution with EEPROM non-volatility is required for designs compatible with the MAX 7000 architecture. It serves as a pin-compatible replacement for 5.0-V MAX 7000S devices while operating at 3.3 V. Consider the 5 ns delay and 192.3 MHz speed for high-frequency digital logic applications requiring moderate gate density.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

The EPM7128AETC100-7 is part of the MAX 7000A series, an evolution of Altera's second-generation MAX architecture. This family bridges the gap between simple PLDs and FPGAs, offering high performance with low power consumption. The 'AE' suffix denotes the 3.3-V variant, distinguishing it from the original 5-V MAX 7000E/S series.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not provided in the source data. Designers should consult official obsolescence notices for recommended migration paths to newer Intel FPGA families.
