EPM7160SQC160-7 Présentation

The Altera EPM7160SQC160-7 is a 160-macrocell high-density CMOS Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) from the MAX 7000S family, housed in a 160-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP/BQFP) surface-mount package and specified at the -7 speed grade with 7.5 ns maximum pin-to-pin propagation delay. The device integrates 3,200 usable system gates across 10 Logic Array Blocks (LABs) and 160 macrocells, each containing a programmable AND/OR array with 32 product terms, supporting fast and predictable combinational and registered logic implementation. The 'S' suffix indicates in-system programmability (ISP) through a built-in IEEE 1149.1 JTAG interface operating from a single 5.0 V supply (4.75 V to 5.25 V), which allows board-level reconfiguration without removing the device.

A CPLD is a non-volatile programmable logic device that combines multiple PAL-like macrocells on a single chip with on-chip EEPROM configuration memory, providing instant-on behavior at power-up with no external boot PROM. The MAX 7000S architecture belongs to the broader programmable logic family, sitting between small SPLDs/GALs and larger FPGAs; it excels at glue-logic, bus interfacing, address decoding, and state-machine replacement where deterministic timing and 5 V tolerance are required. The part is commercial-grade (0 °C to 70 °C) and its output drivers can be configured for 3.3 V or 5.0 V operation, enabling mixed-voltage system designs.

Key features include 104 maximum user I/Os, two global clock pins, JTAG-based ISP, pin-compatible speed grades (-5, -6, -7, -10), and PCI-SIG compliance per the PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2. The high pin count makes it suitable for byte-wide bus bridging and address/data demultiplexing. The device is fully supported by Altera's legacy MAX+PLUS II and Quartus II design tools, with the latter providing modern Verilog/VHDL and schematic entry.

Typical applications include PCI bus interface glue logic, peripheral controller glue logic between microprocessors and memory, address decoding and chip-select generation, bus-width translation between 5 V and 3.3 V domains, and replacement of multiple discrete 22V10 / GAL devices. The instant-on, non-volatile configuration also suits industrial control and instrumentation boards where deterministic boot behavior is required.

When designing with this part, observe the I/O banking rules for 3.3 V versus 5.0 V outputs and provide adequate decoupling (one 0.1 µF per VCC/GND pair plus a bulk 10 µF). For JTAG ISP, ensure TMS, TDI, TDO, and TCK are routed with short traces and the TRST pin is handled per datasheet guidance. Choose the -6 or -10 speed grade if 7.5 ns is over-budget for the timing closure target.

Applications typiques

EPM7160SQC160-7 convient pour 6 applications: PCI Bus Glue Logic, Microprocessor to Memory Address Decoding, Bus-Width Translation (5 V to 3.3 V), State-Machine Replacement for Discrete PALs, Peripheral Controller Glue Logic, Industrial Control and Instrumentation Logic.

🌐

PCI Bus Glue Logic

The EPM7160SQC160-7's PCI-SIG 2.2 compliance and 104 user I/Os make it a natural fit for PCI target/host adapter glue logic. The 7.5 ns tPD allows state-machine decoding of PCI address/command phases within the 33 MHz bus clock period. Place the device between the PCI bus transceivers and the local controller to handle parity generation, target response, and burst-handling state. Compared to discrete 22V10 PALs, the 160-macrocell capacity consolidates what would otherwise require 4-6 SPLDs onto one BQFP-160 footprint.

🖥️

Microprocessor to Memory Address Decoding

In 8/16/32-bit embedded systems the EPM7160SQC160-7 replaces multiple 22V10 / GAL22V10 devices with a single 160-macrocell CPLD, generating chip-select signals for ROM, SRAM, DRAM, and peripheral banks. The 5.0 V VCC with selectable 3.3 V or 5.0 V output levels allows direct interfacing to both legacy 5 V memory and modern 3.3 V peripherals without external level shifters. The 7.5 ns tPD keeps the decoded chip-select valid before the memory access window opens at typical 25-40 MHz CPU clock rates.

🔧

Bus-Width Translation (5 V to 3.3 V)

The EPM7160SQC160-7's selectable 3.3 V or 5.0 V output drivers per I/O bank enable mixed-voltage bus translation without external level-shift ICs. A 160-macrocell device comfortably implements a 32-bit bidirectional 5 V <-> 3.3 V translator with direction-control logic. The 7.5 ns tPD supports bus throughput up to ~66 MHz, suitable for legacy peripheral buses in industrial PCs and instrumentation where 5 V cores still coexist with 3.3 V ASICs.

🏭

State-Machine Replacement for Discrete PALs

Engineers use the EPM7160SQC160-7 to consolidate boards originally built with 4-8 discrete PAL/GAL devices into a single CPLD, freeing PCB area and reducing BOM cost. The EEPROM-backed configuration is non-volatile, providing instant-on behavior at power-up - critical for industrial controllers where a slow FPGA boot is unacceptable. With 32 product terms per macrocell and 10 LABs, the device can host multiple independent state machines plus combinational decode in one chip, all running at the guaranteed 7.5 ns tPD.

🔧

Peripheral Controller Glue Logic

The EPM7160SQC160-7 serves as the central glue-logic hub on legacy peripheral controller boards, interfacing microprocessors to UARTs, FIFOs, DMA controllers, and interrupt controllers. The 104 user I/Os and 3,200-gate capacity provide ample headroom for FIFO flag combining, interrupt prioritization, and timing generation. JTAG-based in-system programmability allows field firmware updates without removing the controller card from its host chassis - a key advantage over one-time-programmable PALs.

🏭

Industrial Control and Instrumentation Logic

In industrial automation backplanes and test-and-measurement instruments, the EPM7160SQC160-7 delivers deterministic, non-volatile logic for custom timing, signal routing, and protection interlocks. The commercial 0-70 °C operating range covers most indoor enclosures, and the 5 V tolerance interfaces directly to legacy industrial sensors and actuators. The device's instant-on EEPROM configuration eliminates boot-loader complexity, making it ideal for safety-critical interlocks that must be active before the main CPU boots.

What is the propagation delay of EPM7160SQC160-7?
The EPM7160SQC160-7 has a maximum pin-to-pin propagation delay (tPD) of 7.5 ns, corresponding to the '-7' speed grade of the MAX 7000S family. Faster -6 and -5 grades (6 ns and 5 ns) and slower -10 grade (10 ns) share the same 160-pin PQFP pinout, allowing drop-in upgrade for timing margins.
How many macrocells and logic blocks does EPM7160SQC160-7 have?
The EPM7160SQC160-7 integrates 160 macrocells organized into 10 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), each macrocell offering 32 product terms in a programmable AND/OR array. The architecture delivers approximately 3,200 usable system gates, sufficient for medium-complexity glue logic and bus-interface state machines.
Is EPM7160SQC160-7 still in production?
No. According to Arrow's product listing, the EPM7160SQC160-7 is marked Obsolete with no active last-time-buy window. Intel/Altera has migrated MAX 7000S customers to MAX II or MAX V CPLD families; new designs should target MAX II Z or MAX V CPLDs.
What is the difference between EPM7160SQC160-7 and EPM7160SQC160-10?
Both parts share the identical 160-pin PQFP footprint and 160-macrocell die. The only difference is speed grade: the -7 variant delivers 7.5 ns tPD while the -10 variant delivers 10 ns tPD. They are functionally interchangeable when timing closure permits the slower grade, with the -7 typically costing more.

EPM7160SQC160-7 vs EPM7160SQC160-6 - which should I choose?
The EPM7160SQC160-6 (6 ns tPD) is the faster speed grade in the same 160-pin PQFP package and 160-macrocell MAX 7000S family. Choose the -6 if your timing budget requires 6 ns or less; otherwise choose the -7 to save cost, since both parts are pin-compatible drop-in replacements on the same PCB footprint.
When should I choose EPM7160SQC160-7 over EPM7128SQC160-7?
Choose the EPM7160SQC160-7 (160 macrocells, 3,200 gates) when your design exceeds the 128-macrocell limit of the EPM7128SQC160-7 (128 macrocells, 2,500 gates). Both share the same 160-pin PQFP package and JTAG ISP interface, so the upgrade is a drop-in replacement with larger logic capacity.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EPM7160SQC160-7?
The closest same-package drop-in replacements are other MAX 7000S speed grades in the 160-pin PQFP footprint: EPM7160SQC160-6 (6 ns tPD), EPM7160SQC160-10 (10 ns tPD), and EPM7160SQC160-10N (10 ns, lead-free). All share identical pinout, JTAG chain, and 160-macrocell die architecture, enabling design-time speed-grade tuning without PCB rework.
Where can I download the EPM7160SQC160-7 datasheet PDF?
The original Altera MAX 7000S datasheet PDF is mirrored at https://datasheet.iiic.cc/aa595ba4/altera.com/EPM7160SQC160-7.pdf. The datasheet documents macrocell architecture, JTAG programming, AC timing, package dimensions, and PCI compliance per Revision 2.2 of the PCI Local Bus Specification.
Where can I find the EPM7160SQC160-7 pinout?
The EPM7160SQC160-7 pinout for the 160-pin PQFP package is documented in the manufacturer datasheet, where pin 1 is marked with a dot on the top surface and pins are numbered counter-clockwise. The XAIPART product page also publishes a per-pin assignment table for the BQFP-160 footprint covering all JTAG, I/O, and supply pins.
What are the key specifications of EPM7160SQC160-7 that engineers should know?
Engineers should note five key specifications: 160 macrocells across 10 LABs delivering 3,200 system gates; 7.5 ns pin-to-pin tPD at the -7 speed grade; 104 maximum user I/Os in the 160-pin PQFP package; 5.0 V single supply (4.75 V to 5.25 V); and JTAG-based in-system programmability with EEPROM non-volatile configuration. PCI-SIG 2.2 compliance is also documented in the manufacturer datasheet.
Is EPM7160SQC160-7 RoHS compliant?
No. According to Arrow's product listing, the EPM7160SQC160-7 is classified as 'EU RoHS Not Compliant' under the obsolete part's original specifications. The lead-free variant EPM7160SQC160-10N is the RoHS-compatible option in the same 160-pin PQFP footprint. New designs targeting RoHS should use the -10N suffix variant.

Guide de sélection

Choose the EPM7160SQC160-7 when you need a 5 V-tolerant, non-volatile programmable logic device with 160 macrocells in the legacy 160-pin PQFP footprint, particularly for PCI-bus glue logic, address decoding, or bus-width translation. The -7 speed grade (7.5 ns tPD) is the balanced cost-performance option in the MAX 7000S family. Step up to EPM7160SQC160-6 if you need 33 MHz PCI timing headroom; step down to EPM7160SQC160-10 or EPM7160SQC160-10N when timing closure permits slower logic or when RoHS compliance is required. For new designs targeting active-lifecycle parts, migrate to the MAX V or MAX 10 CPLD families - those parts are not pin-compatible with the 160-pin PQFP, so PCB redesign is required. All MAX 7000S speed grades in this package are drop-in interchangeable, making the EPM7160SQC160-7 a flexible baseline for inventory hedging.

Principaux différenciateurs

  • Balanced speed-cost point in the MAX 7000S speed-grade family (vs EPM7160SQC160-6)
  • PCI-SIG 2.2 compliant glue logic in a single chip (vs Discrete 22V10 / GAL22V10 PAL array)
  • 5 V tolerant with selectable 3.3 V I/O for mixed-voltage designs (vs MAX V CPLD (5M160ZE64) active-lifecycle alternative)

Notes de conception

The EPM7160SQC160-7 requires a single 5.0 V supply (4.75 V to 5.25 V). Decouple each VCC/GND pair with a 0.1 µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the device leads, and add a single 10 µF bulk tantalum or ceramic capacitor at the board's 5 V power entry. During in-system programming (ISP), transient current can briefly exceed the steady-state ICC; ensure the regulator has at least 200 mA headroom. Power sequencing is not required - the device enters user mode automatically after POR.

Route the four JTAG signals (TDI, TMS, TCK, TDO) as a short daisy-chain with 10 kΩ pull-ups on TMS and TDI; keep total JTAG trace length below 50 mm to maintain signal integrity at typical 10-20 MHz TCK rates. The 160-pin PQFP (28x28 mm body) requires a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane beneath the device to provide a low-impedance return path for the 104 high-speed I/Os. Leave the four corner GND pins (11, 30, 41, 52, 63, 74, 85, 96, 107, 118, 129, 140, 151, 156) solidly stitched to the ground plane with multiple vias each for thermal and electrical performance.

Three pitfalls are common when migrating designs to or from the EPM7160SQC160-7. First, do not assume the I/O banks default to 5 V - the output level is set by VCCIO per bank and must be explicitly connected even when only one voltage is used. Second, do not exceed 104 user I/Os in your pin assignment; the datasheet's 'Maximum' count assumes all dedicated JTAG and global clock pins are re-purposed as I/O, which is rarely desirable. Third, when replacing with the EPM7160SQC160-6 or -10 speed grade, verify timing closure - the 25% speed delta (-10 vs -7) can break PCI-bus designs.
