5M240ZM68C4N Présentation

The Intel 5M240ZM68C4N is a low-power, non-volatile CPLD from the MAX V family, integrating 192 macro cells (240 logic elements) in a 68-ball Micro FBGA package. Operating from a single 1.8 V core supply, the device delivers pin toggle rates up to 184.1 MHz with sub-100 µA standby current, targeting glue-logic, bus-bridging, and power-sequencing functions in cost-sensitive designs.

A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic device that sits between discrete logic gates and FPGAs in the programmable logic hierarchy. Compared to discrete 74-series glue logic, a CPLD consolidates many decode, latch and state-machine functions into a single re-programmable IC; compared to an FPGA, a CPLD offers instant-on non-volatile configuration, deterministic timing, and lower static power. The MAX V family belongs to Intel's (formerly Altera's) mainstream low-density CPLD portfolio, optimized for I/O expansion, interface bridging, and board control.

Key features include 192 macro cells backed by 8 Kbits of user flash memory, MultiVolt core (1.8 V) and I/O support for 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V and LVCMOS/LVTTL interfaces, plus an on-chip voltage regulator allowing single-rail operation. The device supports in-system programmability via JTAG and exposes user I/O on every available ball, simplifying PCB routing in space-constrained designs.

Architecturally, the 5M240ZM68C4N uses a classic Lab/EEPLA matrix interconnect feeding four logic array blocks, each containing 48 macro cells. The non-volatile flash configuration cell eliminates external boot memory and enables instant-on behavior within microseconds of power-up. I/O structures include Schmitt-trigger inputs, programmable pull-up resistors, bus-hold circuitry, and 5 V-tolerant LVTTL buffers, allowing direct interface to legacy 5 V logic rails with appropriate external limiting.

Typical applications include I/O expansion and level translation between ASICs/SoCs and peripheral buses, power-up sequencing for multi-rail systems, board-control glue logic in routers and base stations, industrial control boards, and consumer electronics where a small amount of custom logic must replace dozens of discrete gates. The 68-ball MBGA package suits compact handheld and embedded designs.

When designing with the 5M240ZM68C4N, budget for the on-chip regulator decoupling network (1 µF and 100 nF caps near VCCINT/VCCIO) and respect the I/O bank VCCIO grouping for mixed-voltage designs. Quartus II Web Edition or the newer Intel Quartus Prime Lite supports this device free of charge, providing synthesis, fitting, place-and-route, and JTAG programming.

Its I/O banks (VCCIO) can be independently powered at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V for mixed-voltage interfacing. According to the MAX V family datasheet, the on-chip voltage regulator decouples VCCINT noise and removes the need for an external 1.8 V LDO when a 3.3 V rail is present.

How many logic elements and macro cells does 5M240ZM68C4N have?

The 5M240ZM68C4N contains 240 logic elements organized as 192 macro cells across four Logic Array Blocks. According to the MAX V datasheet, each LAB holds 48 macro cells backed by 16 logic elements of local interconnect. This density supports roughly 60 to 80 equivalent 74-series gates of decoded glue logic in a single chip.

What is the difference between 5M240ZM68C4N and 5M240ZM68C5N?

Both parts share the 68-ball MBGA package, 192 macro cells, and 1.8 V core. The 'C4' speed grade offers a 4 ns pin-to-pin logic delay with f_MAX around 184.1 MHz, while the 'C5' speed grade offers 5 ns delay and a slightly lower f_MAX. They are pin-compatible drop-in alternatives; C5 is typically lower-cost, while C4 supports tighter timing margins.

What is the difference between 5M240ZM68C4N and 5M240ZM100I5N?

The 5M240ZM68C4N is a commercial-temperature, 68-ball MBGA variant, whereas the 5M240ZM100I5N is the industrial-temperature, 100-pin EQFP variant of the same MAX V die. Pin count and package differ, so they are not drop-in compatible; choose the 68-ball device for compact boards and the 100-pin EQFP for industrial-temperature or breadboard-friendly designs.

What software is needed to program 5M240ZM68C4N?

The 5M240ZM68C4N is supported by Intel Quartus Prime Lite (free) and the legacy Altera Quartus II Web Edition. Both toolchains handle synthesis, fitting, place-and-route, simulation, and JTAG programming via a USB-Blaster or compatible download cable. The MAX V device family is mature and supported in all current Quartus releases.

What is the maximum toggle rate of 5M240ZM68C4N?

The 5M240ZM68C4N supports a maximum internal operating frequency of approximately 184.1 MHz in the C4 speed grade per the MAX V datasheet. Actual achievable f_MAX depends on logic utilization, routing paths, and I/O standard; designs typically budget 100-150 MHz to retain timing margin across voltage and temperature corners.

Where can I buy 5M240ZM68C4N and what is the price?

The 5M240ZM68C4N is available from authorized distributors including DigiKey, Mouser, and Intel direct, with a unit price of approximately 6.62 USD at qty-1 as of 2026-09-06. Volume breaks drop to about 4.20 USD at qty-1000. Lead time for stock parts is typically same-day to two weeks depending on distributor inventory.

Is 5M240ZM68C4N in stock at major distributors?

As of 2026-09-06 the 5M240ZM68C4N shows limited stock at authorized distributors, with 5 original pieces reported by MOST and additional inventory tracked on DigiKey and Mouser. Because MAX V is a mature family, expect lead times of 2-6 weeks when stock is depleted; industrial variants and other package options typically have longer availability.

What is the best drop-in replacement for 5M240ZM68C4N?

The 5M240ZM68C5N is the strongest drop-in replacement for the 5M240ZM68C4N: identical 68-ball MBGA footprint, identical 192 macro cells, same 1.8 V core, and pin-for-pin compatibility, with a 5 ns vs 4 ns logic delay. If you need higher temperature grade in the same package, consider the 5M240ZM68I5N (industrial temperature) instead.

Where can I download the 5M240ZM68C4N datasheet PDF?

The official MAX V family datasheet covering the 5M240ZM68C4N is hosted on the Intel Programmable Solutions Group website as m5v.pdf (literature/ds). Mirror copies appear on aggregator sites like FindIC and datasheet.live. Always cross-reference the Intel-published PDF for the latest errata and AC specification values before finalizing your design.

Is 5M240ZM68C4N suitable for industrial applications?

The 5M240ZM68C4N 'C' suffix denotes commercial temperature grade (0C to +85C). For true industrial environments (-40C to +100C), choose the 5M240ZM68I5N variant, which shares the same 68-ball MBGA footprint. Functionally identical, the I-grade parts are preferred for outdoor, automotive-cabin, or factory-floor deployments.

What are the key specifications of 5M240ZM68C4N that engineers should know?

Key specifications: 192 macro cells / 240 logic elements, 68-ball MBGA package, 1.8 V core, MultiVolt I/O supporting 1.5 V-3.3 V, 184.1 MHz f_MAX, 8 Kbits user flash, non-volatile instant-on configuration via JTAG, commercial 0C to +85C temperature grade. These parameters define its suitability for low-power glue-logic replacement and I/O expansion roles.

Can a Xilinx CoolRunner-II replace 5M240ZM68C4N?

No, the Xilinx CoolRunner-II family is not a drop-in replacement for the 5M240ZM68C4N because package ball-outs, pin assignments, and JTAG pin locations differ between the two vendor CPLD families. Engineers migrating between Altera/Intel MAX V and Xilinx CoolRunner-II must re-design the PCB footprint and adapt the JTAG chain, even when logic capacity and I/O count are similar.

How much power does 5M240ZM68C4N consume?

The 5M240ZM68C4N typically draws low milliampere-level active current and standby current below 100 microamps thanks to the MAX V family's non-volatile flash configuration and low-power process. Exact consumption depends on toggle rate, VCCIO voltage, and output loading; consult the MAX V datasheet power estimator for design-specific budgeting.

5M240ZM68C4N vs 5M2210ZF256C5N - which is better for a glue-logic design?

The 5M240ZM68C4N (192 macro cells, 68-ball MBGA) suits compact, low-cost glue-logic tasks where board space is critical. The 5M2210ZF256C5N (MAX II family, 2210 logic elements, 256-ball FBGA) is denser and offers more I/O but costs more and occupies a larger footprint. Choose the 240 for sub-100-gate designs and the 2210 for broader bus-bridging or state-machine intensive applications.

Guide de sélection

Choose the 5M240ZM68C4N when you need a non-volatile, instant-on CPLD with 240 logic elements in a compact 68-ball MBGA package for commercial-temperature (0C to +85C) applications. Select the 5M240ZM68C5N if your timing margins can absorb the 1 ns additional delay at lower cost. For industrial (-40C to +100C) or automotive (-40C to +125C) environments, choose the 5M240ZM68A5N. If 160 logic elements suffice, the 5M160ZM68C4N offers substantial cost savings in the same footprint. Migrate to the 5M2210ZF256C5N only when logic requirements exceed 240 elements, since MAX II consumes more power and occupies a larger FBGA package.

Notes de conception

The 5M240ZM68C4N requires a stable 1.8 V supply on VCCINT and independent VCCIO rails (1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V) for each I/O bank. Place 0.1 microfarad and 1 microfarad decoupling capacitors as close as possible to each supply ball, with a wide ground return path. During power-up ramp, hold nCONFIG low until VCCINT and VCCIO reach their minimum thresholds to guarantee a clean configuration load.

The 68-ball MBGA package has 0.5 mm pitch and benefits from microvia and via-in-pad PCB construction. Fan-out each BGA ball to short traces on the top layer, then drop down to inner layers for signal routing. Maintain a continuous ground plane on an adjacent layer to control impedance and provide a low-impedance return path for high-speed I/O such as DDR or LVDS signaling that may be implemented via user I/O.

Do not leave JTAG pins (TDI, TMS, TCK, TDO) floating in production: add weak pull-ups or pull-downs per the MAX V datasheet to prevent spurious configuration events. Ensure the nCE pin is tied low in normal operation; floating nCE can leave the device in an undefined state. Always run the Quartus PowerPlay early power estimator before final pin assignment to avoid I/O bank VCCIO conflicts when mixing 1.8 V and 3.3 V interfaces.
