EPM7160STC100-7

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Overview

The Altera EPM7160STC100-7 is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) belonging to the MAX 7000S family. It features 160 macrocells organized into 10 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), providing 3,200 usable gates and 84 user I/O pins. The device operates at a 5.0 V supply voltage with a maximum propagation delay of 6 ns and a maximum counter frequency of 149.3 MHz. It utilizes EEPROM technology for non-volatile storage and supports In-System Programming (ISP) via a built-in IEEE Std. 1149.1 JTAG interface. The component is housed in a 100-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical data indicates non-compliance for some variants. Check for End-of-Life (EOL) status and lead times from suppliers. Ensure proper handling for moisture-sensitive devices if applicable.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring 160 macrocells and 84 I/Os in a TQFP-100 package. Compare against EPM7160E for non-ISP requirements or EPM7160SLC84 for PLCC-84 packaging. Consider speed grades (-5, -6, -7, -10) based on timing constraints. Verify voltage compatibility with system 5.0 V rails.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

Part of the Altera MAX 7000 family, specifically the ISP-capable MAX 7000S series. Shares architecture with EPM7128S and EPM7192S. Successor to MAX 7000E in terms of programmability features. Part of Intel's portfolio following acquisition.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same package include other MAX 7000S devices like EPM7128STC100-7 or EPM7192STC100-7, subject to logic density requirements. Non-ISP equivalents like EPM7160STC100-10N may be considered if ISP is not required.
