EPM9560RZ208-15 Présentation

The Altera (Intel) EPM9560RZ208-15 is a member of the MAX 9000 EPLD family, providing 560 macrocells (approximately 12,000 usable gates) in a 208-pin PowerQuad QFP (RQFP) package with -15 speed grade (15 ns pin-to-pin delay). It is built on a 0.35 µm CMOS EEPROM process that delivers non-volatile, in-system programmable logic for high-density glue-logic, bus-interface, and state-machine consolidation designs.

An EPLD (Erasable Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic device that combines the architectural simplicity of PAL/GAL with multi-macrocell arrays, in-system programmability via IEEE 1149.1 JTAG, and predictable timing. In the broader taxonomy, an EPLD is a sub-class of CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device), which itself sits between discrete PLDs and high-density FPGAs. MAX 9000 sits near the upper end of the CPLD density envelope offered in the late-1990s/early-2000s Altera portfolio, providing high I/O counts and predictable timing suitable for board-level glue logic.

Key features include 560 macrocells, 16 logic array blocks (LABs), 212 user I/O pins, 5V tolerant I/O on selected variants, in-system programmability (ISP) through JTAG, and a maximum toggle frequency of 100 MHz. The FastTrack interconnect provides continuous routing that yields fully deterministic, hazard-free timing — every path through the device has a guaranteed propagation delay independent of logic placement. Designers can therefore budget timing without floorplanning iterations.

The RQFP-208 package offers 208 pins with low profile suitable for socketed and surface-mount designs. With 212 user I/Os available in the package and high-drive capability on outputs, the EPM9560RZ208-15 is well suited for parallel bus interfaces, address decoding, memory control, and peripheral multiplexing tasks where multiple discrete 74-series devices would otherwise be required. The -15 speed grade delivers tPD = 15 ns, suiting 33 MHz synchronous designs.

Typical applications include legacy industrial control systems, telecommunications backplane glue logic, ISA/PCI bus address decoding, and microcontroller peripheral expansion. The wide I/O count and predictable timing also suit it for ASIC prototyping in designs that later migrate to structured ASIC or gate-array devices.

When designing with the EPM9560RZ208-15, note that the device is a mature part approaching end-of-life. Designers of new products should consider the Altera (Intel) MAX V, MAX II, or MAX 10 CPLD families, which offer lower power, smaller packages, and modern I/O standards. For legacy board replacement, verify pin compatibility with the original design footprint and review the datasheet's DC characteristics, particularly VCCIO banks and 5V tolerance.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, drop-in alternatives from the MAX 9000 family, and practical design notes not consolidated in the manufacturer datasheet — giving sourcing engineers a single reference for both qualification and substitution decisions.

Applications typiques

EPM9560RZ208-15 convient pour 6 applications: Legacy Industrial Control Systems, Telecommunications Backplane Glue Logic, ISA/PCI Bus Address Decoding, Microcontroller Peripheral Expansion, ASIC Prototyping and Logic Consolidation, Legacy Board Repair and Last-Time-Buy Stock.

🏭

Legacy Industrial Control Systems

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits legacy industrial control systems because its 560 macrocells and 212 user I/Os can replace dozens of discrete 74-series logic devices on a control board, dramatically reducing component count and improving reliability. The device's 15 ns tPD comfortably supports 33 MHz synchronous operation typical of PLC backplanes, motor-control interfaces, and sensor-multiplexing boards. The RQFP-208 package's surface-mount profile also suits modernized control cabinets where vibration resistance is critical. Compared to a discrete logic implementation, a single MAX 9560 reduces PCB area by 60–80% and simplifies BOM management. The device's non-volatile EEPROM configuration means no external boot PROM is required — power-on behavior is deterministic. This makes the EPM9560RZ208-15 a strong candidate for repairing or extending legacy control systems whose original CPLD has failed or whose logic must be updated to support new sensor types.

🌐

Telecommunications Backplane Glue Logic

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits telecommunications backplane glue-logic applications because its high I/O count (212 pins) can simultaneously address multiple bus segments, control line interfaces, and timing-synchronization signals on a backplane mid-plane. The deterministic tPD = 15 ns timing enables the device to reliably bridge 33 MHz TDM buses, E1/T1 framers, and HDLC controllers without violating setup/hold budgets. The FastTrack continuous interconnect ensures every signal path has the same delay regardless of placement — a critical property for backplane designs where signal-integrity margins are tight. Compared to FPGA alternatives, the MAX 9560's instant-on (no configuration time) and 5V-tolerant I/Os make it simpler to integrate with legacy line-interface units. The RQFP-208 package supports the high pin density required for backplane glue logic. For TDM and SDH backplanes operating at speeds up to 52 Mbps, the EPM9560RZ208-15 is a mature, qualified choice.

🖥️

ISA/PCI Bus Address Decoding

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits ISA and PCI bus address-decoding applications because its 560 macrocells can decode the full 32-bit address space of a PCI bus while also providing bus-master arbitration, interrupt steering, and wait-state generation in a single device. The 15 ns tPD easily meets the PCI 33 MHz clock-to-output requirements with margin to spare, while the 212 user I/Os comfortably accommodate the PCI bus signals plus several ISA or local-bus peripherals. The non-volatile configuration eliminates the boot-time delay associated with SRAM-based FPGAs — important for systems that must respond to bus arbitration within microseconds of power-up. The deterministic timing model also allows designers to compute worst-case propagation paths without iteration, accelerating board bring-up. Compared to discrete 74F138 / 74F139 decoder trees, a single MAX 9560 reduces part count, lowers propagation skew, and provides a software-configurable decode map that can be revised without PCB changes. This makes the EPM9560RZ208-15 a standard choice for industrial-PCI and CompactPCI single-board computers.

🤖

Microcontroller Peripheral Expansion

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits microcontroller peripheral-expansion applications because it can synthesize custom peripherals — PWM generators, quadrature decoders, UARTs, and chip-select glue — that extend a host MCU's I/O count and offload timing-critical tasks. The 560 macrocells provide ample capacity for 8–10 synthesized peripherals in a single device, while the 212 user I/Os comfortably handle the multiplexed signal fan-out to sensors, actuators, and external memory. The 5V-tolerant I/Os on most MAX 9000 variants interface directly with 5V MCUs without level shifters, simplifying board design. The non-volatile EEPROM configuration means the peripheral map is available instantly on power-up — important for deterministic motor-control and safety-critical loops. Compared to discrete logic implementations, the MAX 9560 consolidates 10–20 small ICs into one, reducing PCB area by 50–70% and BOM cost. The EPM9560RZ208-15 is widely used in industrial automation, robotics, and embedded control designs where deterministic peripheral behavior is required.

🔬

ASIC Prototyping and Logic Consolidation

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits ASIC prototyping and logic-consolidation applications because its 12,000 usable gates are sufficient to emulate a small block of a planned gate-array or structured-ASIC design, allowing firmware and system validation to proceed in parallel with ASIC fab. The deterministic timing of the FastTrack interconnect lets designers verify worst-case critical paths against ASIC timing budgets before tape-out, reducing design risk. The 212 user I/Os accommodate the wide busses typical of ASIC datapaths (32–64 bits plus control), and the 5V I/O compatibility simplifies integration with legacy test fixtures. The non-volatile configuration means prototypes can be reprogrammed and reused across multiple ASIC iterations without external PROMs. Compared to FPGA prototyping, the MAX 9560 consumes less power and is less expensive at low volumes, though it has lower density. This makes the EPM9560RZ208-15 a standard choice for prototyping glue logic and peripheral controllers ahead of ASIC migration.

🔧

Legacy Board Repair and Last-Time-Buy Stock

The EPM9560RZ208-15 fits legacy board-repair and last-time-buy stock scenarios because production systems that integrated this part in the late-1990s and 2000s often require functional-equivalent replacements during maintenance cycles. The 560 macrocells, 212 user I/Os, and 15 ns tPD match the exact specifications of the originally-installed part, ensuring that the repaired system performs identically to the original. The RQFP-208 package footprint matches existing PCB land patterns, so no board rework is required. The non-volatile EEPROM configuration ensures the repaired unit behaves identically to the original after programming. Compared to redesigning with a modern CPLD (which would require board respin, requalification, and possibly FCC/CE re-certification), sourcing the same EPM9560RZ208-15 minimizes repair cost and turnaround. This is the primary use case for this part in 2026 — supporting installed-base systems in industrial, telecom, and military/aerospace markets with long service lifetimes.

What is the EPM9560RZ208-15?
The EPM9560RZ208-15 is a member of the Altera MAX 9000 EPLD family, providing 560 macrocells (approximately 12,000 usable gates) in a 208-pin PowerQuad QFP (RQFP) package with a 15 ns pin-to-pin delay. It is built on 0.35 µm CMOS EEPROM technology and supports in-system programming via JTAG. According to the Altera MAX 9000 datasheet, the device targets high-density glue-logic, bus-interface, and state-machine consolidation applications.
How many macrocells and user I/O pins does the EPM9560RZ208-15 have?
The EPM9560RZ208-15 contains 560 macrocells organized into 16 Logic Array Blocks (LABs) and supports up to 212 user I/O pins. According to the Altera MAX 9000 datasheet, this I/O count makes the EPM9560 well suited for parallel bus interfaces, address decoding, and wide datapath applications where multiple discrete 74-series logic devices would otherwise be required.
What is the difference between EPM9560RZ208-15 and EPM9560RC208-15?
Both parts share the same die (560 macrocells, 12,000 usable gates, 15 ns tPD), but differ in package: the EPM9560RZ208-15 uses a 208-pin PowerQuad QFP (RQFP) while the EPM9560RC208-15 uses a 208-pin standard QFP. Pin-out is package-specific, so they are NOT drop-in interchangeable; the R variant is typically used where lower profile or socketed mounting is required.
Is the EPM9560RZ208-15 still in production?
No. The EPM9560RZ208-15 is listed as obsolete by Altera (now Intel) and is no longer in active production. Stock is available only through distributors carrying legacy inventory, brokers, or factory-direct last-time-buy channels. Pricing as of 2026-09-13 reflects scarcity-driven premium rather than volume production cost.

The EPM9560RZ208-15 unit price as of 2026-09-13 is approximately $85 at qty-1, with volume discounts down to roughly $55 at qty-1000. Pricing reflects the obsolete lifecycle status and scarcity of remaining stock rather than active-market pricing. Quote-based pricing is recommended for production orders.
What is the lead time for the EPM9560RZ208-15?
Lead time for the EPM9560RZ208-15 ranges from 4 to 12 weeks depending on stock availability at legacy distributors as of 2026-09-13. Because the part is obsolete, brokers and factory-direct last-time-buy channels often provide the only practical path to volume supply. Engineering qualification should be planned for a possible redesign to a current CPLD family.
Where can I download the EPM9560RZ208-15 datasheet PDF?
The EPM9560 datasheet PDF is hosted at alldatasheet.com (182-page mature-device datasheet) and at Altera/Intel's document server. The document covers DC characteristics, AC timing, pinout, and programming specifications for the entire MAX 9000 family, including the EPM9560RZ208-15 variant. Search for 'EPM9560 datasheet' or 'MAX 9000 datasheet' to locate the latest version.
Where can I find the pinout for the EPM9560RZ208-15?
The pinout for the EPM9560RZ208-15 is documented in the MAX 9000 datasheet Section 6 'Package Information'. Pin 1 is identified by the marker dot on the RQFP-208 package. The 208 pins are arranged in a 0.5 mm pitch QFP perimeter layout. Designers should reference the device-specific pinout table, not the family-level diagram, when laying out PCB footprints.
What is a drop-in replacement for the EPM9560RZ208-15?
Drop-in replacements for the EPM9560RZ208-15 within the same MAX 9000 family include the EPM9560RC208-15 (standard QFP, NOT pin-compatible due to package difference), EPM9560RI208-15 (industrial temperature grade), and EPM9560RC208-10 (10 ns faster speed grade). For modern redesign, the Altera MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 CPLD families provide functional alternatives with smaller packages but require PCB redesign.
EPM9560RZ208-15 vs EPM9560RC208-15 — which is better for legacy board repair?
For legacy board repair, the choice between EPM9560RZ208-15 and EPM9560RC208-15 depends on the package footprint of the board being repaired. The RZ variant uses a PowerQuad QFP (RQFP-208) while the RC variant uses a standard QFP-208; these packages have different mechanical outlines and pin numbering, so they are not interchangeable. Identify the original package marking on the failed board before ordering a substitute.
When should I choose the EPM9560RZ208-15 over a modern MAX II CPLD?
Choose the EPM9560RZ208-15 only when repairing an existing design that uses the MAX 9000 family footprint, when migrating to a newer CPLD would require a costly board respin, or when sourcing approved-by-contract legacy inventory. For new designs, the Altera MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 CPLD families offer lower power, smaller packages (TQFP, BGA), modern I/O standards, and active lifecycle support.
Is the EPM9560RZ208-15 suitable for new industrial control designs?
No. The EPM9560RZ208-15 is obsolete and not recommended for new industrial control designs as of 2026-09-13. Designers should select a current-generation CPLD such as the Altera (Intel) MAX V or MAX 10, which provides smaller packages, lower power, modern I/O standards, and active lifecycle support. The EPM9560RZ208-15 should be reserved for legacy board repair or last-time-buy inventory scenarios.
What is the difference between the Altera MAX 9000 and MAX 7000 CPLD families?
The MAX 9000 family offers higher logic density (up to 560 macrocells / 12,000 usable gates in the EPM9560) compared to the MAX 7000 family (up to 256 macrocells). The MAX 9000 also uses a more advanced interconnect architecture and supports more user I/O pins (up to 212 vs 164). Both families share the 5V core voltage, EEPROM-based in-system programmability, and JTAG programming interface, making them architecturally familiar to MAX 7000 users.

Guide de sélection

Choose the EPM9560RZ208-15 when repairing or extending a legacy design that uses the MAX 9000 family in a 208-pin PowerQuad QFP (RQFP-208) package and needs the highest available logic density (560 macrocells, 12,000 usable gates) with a 15 ns pin-to-pin delay. Choose the EPM9560RI208-15 if the same density is needed but the design operates over industrial temperature range (-40C to +85C). Choose the EPM9560RC208-15 only if the board uses a standard QFP-208 footprint rather than the PowerQuad outline. For new designs, migrate to a current-generation CPLD such as the Altera MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 family — these offer smaller packages, lower power, modern I/O standards, and active lifecycle support, at the cost of a PCB redesign.

Notes de conception

The RQFP-208 (PowerQuad QFP) package uses a 0.5 mm lead pitch with thermal pad considerations. Recommended PCB land pattern is per IPC-7351 nominal density with 0.6 mm pad width. Place a continuous ground plane on the layer immediately beneath the device to provide a low-impedance return path for the high-pin-count I/O. Decoupling: 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor within 5 mm of each VCC/GND pair, plus a single 10 µF tantalum or polymer bulk capacitor near the device. For mixed 5V/3.3V designs, isolate the MAX 9560 VCCIO bank supply from other 3.3V logic with a ferrite bead to prevent ground bounce coupling through the shared plane.

Estimated: at 33 MHz toggle frequency across 50% of 212 I/Os with 50 pF load, the dynamic power consumption is approximately P = 0.5 × C × V^2 × f × N = 0.5 × 50e-12 × 25 × 33e6 × 106 ≈ 2.2 W. Add quiescent power (~150 mA × 5V = 0.75 W typical) for a total estimated dissipation of ~3 W. The RQFP-208 has a θJA of approximately 25-30 °C/W with 1 oz copper 4-layer board and thermal vias — resulting in a junction temperature rise of ~75-90 °C above ambient at full load. For high-altitude or sealed-enclosure applications, derate toggle activity by 20% or attach a clip-on heatsink to the package top.

Do not assume the EPM9560RZ208-15 is pin-compatible with the EPM9560RC208-15 — the RZ suffix indicates a PowerQuad QFP (RQFP) package with different mechanical outline and pin numbering compared to the standard QFP-208 used by the RC suffix. Verify the original board's package marking before substituting. Also note that MAX 9000 devices require 5V VCC (not 3.3V); connecting 3.3V-only will prevent configuration and may damage the device. JTAG programming requires the four JTAG pins (TDI/TDO/TMS/TCK) to be accessible — ensure they are not assigned to user I/O functions in the Quartus pin assignment file unless pull-ups are provided externally.
