EPM9560ARC304-10F Présentation
A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a programmable logic IC built from an array of macrocells and a programmable interconnect matrix. Unlike an FPGA, which uses fine-grained lookup-table logic and volatile SRAM configuration, a CPLD uses non-volatile EEPROM-based configuration and coarse-grained macrocells, giving deterministic, single-cycle timing and instant-on operation. In the logic IC hierarchy, the EPM9560A sits under CPLD -> programmable logic device (PLD) -> digital logic IC -> semiconductor.
The MAX 9000A family extends the original MAX 9000 architecture with enhanced ISP support and improved routability. The EPM9560A provides 35 logic array blocks (LABs) and 560 macrocells, delivering enough density for bus bridging, glue logic consolidation, and state-machine implementation that would otherwise require dozens of 74-series TTL packages. Its 10 ns tPD supports system clock rates up to approximately 100 MHz for simple combinatorial paths.
Key differentiators include 5 V tolerant I/O for direct interfacing with legacy TTL and CMOS logic, non-volatile configuration that retains the design without an external configuration PROM, and the 304-pin RQFP package that exposes 216 I/O for wide bus applications. The device is supported by Altera MAX+PLUS II and Quartus II development tools.
Typical applications include PCI/ISA bus interface logic, telecommunications line-card glue logic, industrial control state machines, and legacy system replacement where 5 V logic levels are mandatory. The EPM9560ARC304-10F is widely used as a drop-in replacement for older MAX 9000 designs and for sustaining long-lifecycle industrial and telecom equipment.
When designing with this device, note that the 5 V core draws significant static current and the 304-pin RQFP requires careful power/ground plane design. Because the part is a mature, non-volatile CPLD, it is often selected specifically to avoid the configuration-PROM overhead and boot-time delay of SRAM-based FPGAs.
This page synthesizes distributor availability, drop-in alternatives, and practical design notes not found in the manufacturer datasheet, giving engineers a single reference for sustaining this legacy MAX 9000A design.

Applications typiques
EPM9560ARC304-10F convient pour 6 applications: PCI/ISA Bus Interface Logic, Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic, Industrial Control State Machines, Legacy System Replacement and Sustaining, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Military and Aerospace Legacy Upgrades.
PCI/ISA Bus Interface Logic
The EPM9560ARC304-10F fits PCI and ISA bus interface logic because its 216 I/O and 10 ns tPD can absorb the address/data/control glue that would otherwise require many discrete TTL devices. Operating from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply, it directly interfaces with 5 V PCI and ISA signaling without level shifters. Designers typically implement bus arbitration, wait-state generation, and chip-select decoding inside the CPLD, using the non-volatile EEPROM configuration so the logic is active immediately at power-up. The 304-pin RQFP exposes enough I/O to route a full 32-bit PCI bus plus control lines, and the 560 macrocells provide ample room for state machines. A trade-off is the relatively high 5 V static current compared with modern 3.3 V CPLDs, so thermal and power budgeting should account for the legacy process.

Telecommunications Line-Card Glue Logic
In telecom line cards, the EPM9560ARC304-10F consolidates glue logic for TDM framing, clock multiplexing, and backplane interface control. Its 560 macrocells and 35 LABs allow multiple state machines to run concurrently, while the 10 ns pin-to-pin delay supports the timing margins required by legacy telecom buses. The 5 V supply and 5 V-compatible I/O match the signaling used in many installed telecom shelves, avoiding level-translation components. Because the configuration is stored in EEPROM, the device boots instantly when the line card is hot-swapped, which is important for high-availability systems. The 216 I/O pins can accommodate wide backplane buses and status/control signals. A practical consideration is that the 304-pin RQFP demands a solid power/ground plane to control simultaneous switching noise on the wide I/O banks.
Recommandé
Industrial Control State Machines
The EPM9560ARC304-10F is used in industrial control for deterministic state machines, encoder interfaces, and safety interlock logic. Its non-volatile EEPROM configuration means the control logic is live within microseconds of power-up, with no external configuration PROM and no boot delay, which is critical for machinery that must reach a safe state immediately. The 560 macrocells support complex sequencing, and the 10 ns tPD gives predictable single-cycle response for time-critical interlocks. The 5 V supply and 5 V I/O tolerate the electrically noisy environments common in factory automation, and the 0 C to +70 C commercial rating suits controlled-cabinet installations. Designers often partition the CPLD into independent state machines per axis or per station. A trade-off is that the commercial temperature grade limits use in uncontrolled environments, where an industrial-grade variant would be required.
Recommandé
Legacy System Replacement and Sustaining
The EPM9560ARC304-10F is frequently selected to sustain or repair legacy systems whose original MAX 9000A CPLD is no longer stocked. Because the design is already compiled for the MAX 9000A architecture, replacing a failed device with the same or a compatible MAX 9000A part avoids a costly re-design and re-qualification cycle. The 304-pin RQFP footprint and 560-macrocell density match the original design, and the non-volatile configuration means the existing programming file can be reused directly. Engineers should confirm the ordering suffix (temperature grade and finish) against the original bill of materials. The main risk is long-term availability, since the family is NRND; buyers often secure lifetime buys or qualified second sources. This makes the EPM9560ARC304-10F a sustaining part rather than a platform for new development.
Recommandé
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
The EPM9560ARC304-10F appears in test and measurement instruments as a timing and control sequencer for acquisition front ends. Its 10 ns tPD and 560 macrocells allow precise trigger generation, sample-clock sequencing, and bus multiplexing without the jitter of a software-driven controller. The 216 I/O can drive multiple instrument buses and control lines, while the 5 V supply matches the analog and mixed-signal rails common in older instrument designs. Non-volatile configuration ensures the instrument is operational immediately at power-on, which matters for benchtop equipment that must be ready without a boot sequence. Designers often use the CPLD to implement programmable clock dividers and pattern generators. A consideration is that the 5 V core dissipates more power than modern logic, so airflow or heatsinking may be needed in densely packed instruments.
Recommandé
Military and Aerospace Legacy Upgrades
The EPM9560ARC304-10F is used in military and aerospace legacy upgrades where 5 V logic and non-volatile configuration are mandatory. Its EEPROM-based architecture is immune to the configuration loss and single-event upset concerns of SRAM-based FPGAs, and the instant-on behavior supports systems that cannot tolerate a boot delay. The 560 macrocells and 216 I/O provide enough logic for bus bridging, discrete I/O expansion, and protocol conversion in avionics and ground-support equipment. The 304-pin RQFP is a proven package for high-reliability assemblies. Engineers should note that the commercial 0 C to +70 C grade is not suitable for extended-temperature military environments; an appropriate temperature-grade variant must be selected. The part is best treated as a sustaining solution for existing qualified designs rather than a new qualification candidate.

Notes de conception
The EPM9560ARC304-10F operates from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V internal supply and, as a 5 V EEPROM-based CPLD, draws a relatively high static current compared with modern 3.3 V logic. Decouple every VCC pin with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor placed as close to the pin as possible, and add bulk capacitance (10 uF or larger) per power island. Estimated: for a 304-pin RQFP with many simultaneously switching outputs, budget the supply for the device quiescent current plus the dynamic current from capacitive load charging; confirm exact ICC figures in the MAX 9000A family data sheet before finalizing the regulator.
The 304-pin RQFP (PowerQuad II) package requires a dedicated power and ground plane to control simultaneous switching noise across the 216 I/O. Route high-speed or wide buses on layers adjacent to a solid ground plane, and keep the JTAG TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO traces short and matched. Provide thermal vias under the exposed pad area if the package variant includes one, and verify the land pattern against the manufacturer's recommended footprint for the 304-pin RQFP.
Do not assume pin compatibility between MAX 9000A package variants. The EPM9560ARC304-10F (304-pin RQFP) is not pin-compatible with the EPM9560ARC240-10N (240-pin RQFP) or EPM9560ARC208-10 (208-pin RQFP), even though all three share 560 macrocells and a 10 ns speed grade. Always confirm the ordering suffix (temperature grade and lead-free finish) against the original bill of materials, and recompile the design for the exact target device before committing to a substitute.
