EPM1270T144C5N CPLD Intel MAX II 1.8V CPLD with 5V tolerant I/O
The EPM1270T144C5N is a high-density, low-power Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) from Intel (formerly Altera) designed for flexible digital logic implementation in embedded systems. Built on advanced MAX® II architecture, this device features 1,270 logic elements (LEs) and 8,128 usable gates, providing ample resources for state machine control, I/O expansion, and glue logic integration. Operating at a 1.8V core voltage with 5V tolerant I/Os, the EPM1270T144C5N ensures compatibility with mixed-voltage systems while minimizing power consumption. Housed in a 144-pin TQFP package, it offers 116 user I/O pins, making it ideal for space-constrained applications requiring high connectivity, such as industrial automation, telecommunications, and consumer electronics.
One of the key advantages of the EPM1270T144C5N is its fast propagation delay (4.5 ns max), enabling high-speed signal processing and real-time control applications. The device supports in-system programmability (ISP) via JTAG interface, allowing for easy field updates without physical hardware changes. Additionally, it features non-volatile flash memory, ensuring instant-on operation without external configuration memory. The integrated user flash memory (8,192 bits) can store critical system parameters, reducing the need for additional EEPROMs. With a standby current as low as 25 µA, this CPLD is optimized for battery-powered and energy-efficient designs.
The EPM1270T144C5N is designed for robust performance in industrial environments, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 85°C (commercial grade) and support for hot-socketing, preventing damage during live insertion. Its advanced I/O capabilities include programmable slew rate, drive strength, and bus-hold circuitry, ensuring reliable signal integrity in noisy conditions. The device is also RoHS compliant, meeting global environmental standards. Engineers favor this CPLD for its cost-effective reprogrammability, making it suitable for prototyping and medium-volume production where design flexibility is crucial.
