Complex Programmable Logic Devices Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade (-5) and package type (FineLine BGA) against design requirements. Confirm that the programming environment supports the enhanced ISP algorithm and IEEE Std. 1532 compliance for in-system programming workflows.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Selection Notes

Select this device when high gate density and fast pin-to-pin delays are required in a 2.5-V system. The 5.5 ns delay and 163.9 MHz counter frequency support high-speed logic functions. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 256-pin FineLine BGA footprint.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX 7000B family, which offers pin-compatibility with the 5.0-V MAX 7000S and 3.3-V MAX 7000A families. The SameFrame pin-out feature allows migration between different densities and package types within the FineLine BGA form factor.

Complex Programmable Logic Devices Replacement Considerations

Pin-compatible replacements include other devices within the MAX 7000B family, such as the EPM7256B or EPM7128B, provided they fit the required logic density and I/O count constraints.
