EPM7160SLI84-10

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The Altera EPM7160SLI84-10 is a MAX 7000S series Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) housed in an 84-pin PLCC package. It features 160 macrocells organized into 10 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), providing 3,200 usable gates and up to 104 user I/O pins. Operating at a nominal 5.0 V supply voltage with a range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V, the device supports In-System Programming (ISP) via a built-in IEEE Std. 1149.1 JTAG interface. The -10 speed grade specifies a maximum propagation delay of 6 ns and a maximum counter frequency of 149.3 MHz.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Feature Summary

• In-System Programmability (ISP) via IEEE Std. 1149.1 JTAG interface
• 160 Macrocells distributed across 10 Logic Array Blocks (LABs)
• Maximum propagation delay of 6 ns with 149.3 MHz counter frequency
• EEPROM storage technology allowing reprogramming up to 100 times

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Applications

• PCI-compliant logic interfacing
• Mixed-voltage system integration using MultiVolt I/O
• High-density SSI, MSI, and LSI logic replacement
• Prototyping for sequential and combinatorial logic functions

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

This component is identified as End-of-Life (EOL). Verification of current availability requires checking authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers. Ensure that any sourced units are verified against the original Altera specifications, particularly regarding the EEPROM endurance and JTAG functionality, as stock may be aged.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this model when 160 macrocells and 104 I/O pins are required within an 84-pin PLCC footprint. The -10 speed grade is suitable for designs requiring 6 ns pin-to-pin delays. Consider the MAX 7000S series specifically for its ISP capabilities and JTAG boundary-scan test circuitry, which are not present in standard MAX 7000 devices.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

The EPM7160SLI84-10 belongs to the MAX 7000S family, which enhances the standard MAX 7000 architecture with ISP and JTAG BST circuitry. It shares architectural similarities with the EPM7160EQC160-10 but differs in package type (PLCC vs. PQFP) and specific speed characteristics defined by the suffix.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements are limited due to the EOL status. Potential alternatives include other MAX 7000S variants like the EPM7160SLC84-10N, though package and speed grade differences must be validated against design constraints.
