N2105CM

Overview

The Altera N2105CM is a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) featuring 5,000 logic units. It utilizes a high-speed CMOS technology and is housed in a 44-pin SOIC package. The device supports standard voltage levels and operates within the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This component provides low latency and flexible I/O capabilities for digital logic applications.

Feature Summary

• Provides 5,000 usable logic units for complex digital design implementation
• Features low propagation delay characteristics for high-speed signal processing
• Utilizes non-volatile flash memory architecture for instant power-up operation

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring deterministic logic timing
• Communication interface bridging and protocol conversion
• Data acquisition system logic management

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as Altera was acquired by Intel. Confirm the part number matches the original Altera designation before procurement. Ensure the package type corresponds to the required PCB footprint. Check for any updated equivalent components from the current manufacturer portfolio if original stock is unavailable.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a moderate density of logic resources is required with immediate configuration upon power application. It is suitable for designs where SRAM-based FPGAs are unsuitable due to boot-time constraints. Consider the pin count and I/O voltage requirements against the available user connections.

Part Context

The N2105CM belongs to the MAX II family of CPLDs. These devices are designed for cost-sensitive applications needing simple programmable logic. They offer a balance between performance and power consumption, serving as a bridge between discrete logic gates and more complex FPGA solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents within the MAX II series or newer MAX V series. Verify pin compatibility and logic capacity before substituting. Consult official datasheets for parameter differences.
