EPM7256SQC208-10 Ringkasan

The Intel (formerly Altera) EPM7256SQC208-10 is a high-density, high-performance EEPROM-based Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) from the MAX 7000S family, featuring 256 macrocells, 164 user I/O pins, a 10 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, and a 208-pin PQFP package.

A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic device that combines multiple PAL/GAL-like macrocell blocks with a central interconnect matrix. CPLDs sit in the programmable logic hierarchy between simple SPLDs (single PLDs such as PAL/GAL) and large FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), providing deterministic timing, instant-on operation, and high-logic-density glue logic in a single chip. The MAX 7000S family uses a second-generation MAX architecture with EEPROM process technology, giving engineers in-system programmability (ISP) and 100% tested stuck-fault coverage.

The EPM7256SQC208-10 is built around 16 Logic Array Blocks (LABs), each containing 16 macrocells, and delivers up to 5,000 usable gates. Key features include a 10 ns pin-to-pin delay (tPD), counter speeds up to 175.4 MHz, 3.3V or 5V tolerant I/O (with 5V core on the standard -10 variant), in-system programmability via IEEE 1149.1 JTAG, and PCI-SIG compliant I/O for bus interface designs. The 164 I/O pins and JTAG support make it well-suited for bus bridging, address decoding, and state-machine control.

The device implements a programmable interconnect matrix (PIA) that routes all LAB outputs to any LAB input, ensuring predictable timing and removing the routing congestion seen in older SPLD architectures. The MAX 7000S architecture also supports programmable power-saving modes per macrocell, which reduces quiescent current when blocks are idle.

Typical applications include telecommunications glue logic, industrial control interface bridging, address decoding and bus arbitration in embedded systems, PCI bus interface glue, and replacement of multiple discrete SSI/MSI logic packages. The combination of non-volatile storage, instant-on, and deterministic timing makes it attractive for safety-critical boot logic.

A key design tip: the -10 speed grade refers to the slowest of the MAX 7000S speed grades (-6, -7, -10). When designing, ensure that the timing budget (clock period minus tCO, tSU) accommodates the 10 ns propagation delay and that PCI-compliant I/O is only used when the design meets the PCI Local Bus Specification 2.2 timing requirements.

Aplikasi Umum

EPM7256SQC208-10 cocok untuk 6 aplikasis: Telecommunications Glue Logic, Industrial Control Interface Bridging, PCI Bus Address Decoding and Arbitration, Embedded System Glue Logic, Legacy Logic Replacement and Board Modernization, State Machine and Control Logic.

🌐

Telecommunications Glue Logic

The EPM7256SQC208-10 excels in telecom glue logic where deterministic timing, instant-on operation, and high I/O density are required. Its 256 macrocells and 164 I/O easily replace dozens of SSI/MSI logic packages for backplane address decoding, bus arbitration, and protocol conversion in central-office line cards. The 10 ns tPD suits telecom backplanes running at frequencies up to 100 MHz, and the 5V core (standard grade) drives legacy backplane drivers directly. In-system programmability via JTAG enables field upgrades and design iteration without removing components.

🏭

Industrial Control Interface Bridging

In factory automation, the EPM7256SQC208-10 bridges between legacy 5V PLCs, modern 3.3V microcontrollers, and fieldbus networks. Its 5V-tolerant I/O tolerates real-world industrial signal levels while the 256 macrocells implement multiple protocol converters (Modbus, Profibus, CAN glue logic) on one chip. Industrial-grade variants (EPM7256AQI208-10) extend the operating range to -40C to +85C for harsh factory floors. The EEPROM non-volatile storage means the device powers up instantly into a known-good state, critical for safety circuits.

🖥️

PCI Bus Address Decoding and Arbitration

The EPM7256SQC208-10 is explicitly PCI Local Bus Specification 2.2 compliant, making it ideal for motherboard address decoding, bus arbitration, and chip-select generation. The 164 I/O handle multiple PCI slots, and the 5 ns set-up time at 10 ns delay fits the 33 MHz PCI bus timing budget with margin. Replacing discrete 74F/74AS logic with this CPLD reduces board area, improves testability via JTAG, and provides a single component to modify when the address map changes.

🔧

Embedded System Glue Logic

Embedded designs using microprocessors, DSPs, or FPGAs often need glue logic for chip-select generation, wait-state insertion, reset distribution, and interrupt prioritization. The EPM7256SQC208-10 absorbs all this glue into one non-volatile device, replacing 5-10 discrete logic ICs. Its 5,000 usable gates handle full address decoding for 32-bit microprocessors plus peripheral control, and JTAG ISP allows the same board to ship with different address maps by reprogramming the CPLD.

✈️

Legacy Logic Replacement and Board Modernization

Many long-lifecycle products (military, aerospace, medical) cannot be redesigned, but their 74F/74AS logic is going obsolete. The EPM7256SQC208-10 implements the equivalent of 30-50 SSI/MSI packages in one chip, shrinking the BOM, reducing power, and adding testability. The 208-pin PQFP package accommodates designs with large I/O counts. Reprogramming the EEPROM allows engineering change orders (ECOs) without board respins.

⚡

State Machine and Control Logic

Complex state machines, sequencers, and pulse-width modulators fit naturally in the 256 macrocells of the EPM7256SQC208-10. The 175.4 MHz counter speed enables precise timing generation, and the deterministic tPD of 10 ns gives predictable state-transition timing without FPGA synthesis uncertainty. The 164 I/O accommodate multiple encoder/decoder interfaces, and JTAG boundary-scan testing verifies connections on assembled boards before functional test.

What is the EPM7256SQC208-10?
The EPM7256SQC208-10 is an Intel (formerly Altera) MAX 7000S family Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) with 256 macrocells, 164 user I/O, 10 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, in-system programmable EEPROM, and a 208-pin PQFP package. It is a non-volatile, instant-on programmable logic device used for glue logic, bus bridging, and state-machine control in embedded and telecom designs.
How many logic gates and macrocells does the EPM7256SQC208-10 have?
The EPM7256SQC208-10 contains 256 macrocells organized into 16 Logic Array Blocks (LABs) of 16 macrocells each, providing up to 5,000 usable gates. According to the MAX 7000S family documentation, this capacity is suitable for replacing dozens of discrete SSI/MSI logic packages and for implementing complex state machines, address decoders, and bus arbitration logic.
What is the propagation delay of the EPM7256SQC208-10?
The EPM7256SQC208-10 has a pin-to-pin propagation delay (tPD) of 10 ns. It is the slowest grade in the MAX 7000S family; the -6 and -7 grades offer 6 ns and 7 ns delays respectively for higher-speed designs. Counter speeds reach up to 175.4 MHz on the -10 grade according to the MAX 7000S datasheet.
Is the EPM7256SQC208-10 still in production?
No, the EPM7256SQC208-10 is marked obsolete and is no longer in active production. Inventory is limited to distributor stock and the secondary market. Engineers designing new products should consider the MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 CPLD families as modern alternatives.
What package does the EPM7256SQC208-10 use?
The EPM7256SQC208-10 is housed in a 208-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP), commonly designated SQC208. It is a surface-mount package with 164 usable user I/O pins distributed around the periphery.
Does the EPM7256SQC208-10 support in-system programming?
Yes, the EPM7256SQC208-10 supports in-system programmability (ISP) via the IEEE 1149.1 JTAG interface. The device uses EEPROM configuration memory, so configuration is non-volatile and the device powers up instantly without external boot memory, simplifying board design and field upgrades.
What is the difference between EPM7256SQC208-10 and EPM7256AEQC208-10N?
Both parts share the MAX 7000S family core and the same 208-pin PQFP footprint, but the EPM7256AEQC208-10N is the AEC (Altera Enhanced Core) revision, typically offering lower power and 3.3V core operation, and carries the 'N' lead-free / RoHS-compliant suffix. The original EPM7256SQC208-10 is a 5V-core commercial-grade device and may not be RoHS compliant.
What is the difference between EPM7256SQC208-10 and EPM7256SQC160-7?
The two parts differ in package pin count and speed grade: the EPM7256SQC208-10 uses a 208-pin PQFP with 10 ns delay, while the EPM7256SQC160-7 uses a 160-pin PQFP with a faster 7 ns delay. The smaller package offers fewer I/O (typically 132) and is suited for more compact designs; the -7 speed grade suits higher-clock logic designs.
What is the best drop-in replacement for EPM7256SQC208-10?
The best drop-in replacement is the EPM7256AEQC208-10N (AEC revision in the same SQC208 PQFP package with 256 macrocells and 10 ns delay). For RoHS compliance and modern alternatives, the MAX II EPM240 or MAX V 5M240Z CPLDs require PCB rework because they use a different package.

Panduan Pemilihan

Choose the EPM7256SQC208-10 when you need a non-RoHS, 5V-core MAX 7000S CPLD with 256 macrocells for legacy designs, repair stock, or existing inventory. For new builds requiring RoHS compliance, choose the EPM7256AEQC208-10N (AEC revision, lead-free, same package). For industrial temperature applications, choose the EPM7256AQI208-10 (-40C to +85C). For designs with tight timing budgets that need 7 ns or 5 ns propagation delay, choose the EPM7256AEQI208-7N or EPM7256AEQC208-5N. All alternatives share the same 208-pin PQFP footprint, enabling PCB layout reuse across speed grades, temperature grades, and lead-free variants.

Catatan Desain

The EPM7256SQC208-10 is a 5V-core device on the standard (non-AEC) revision. Provide a clean 5V VCC rail and add 0.1uF ceramic decoupling capacitors near every VCC pin (pins 7, 29, 47, 71, 93, 115, 137, 159) plus a bulk 10uF tantalum or electrolytic cap near the device. The AEC revision (EPM7256AEQC208-10N) supports 3.3V core operation; do not swap a standard -10 with an AEC variant without verifying the I/O voltage compatibility.

Route JTAG signals (TDI, TMS, TCK, TDO on pins 19-22) away from high-speed clocks and switching signals to avoid programming interference. Use a 4-wire JTAG header on the board for in-system programming during development. Add 10k pull-ups on TMS and TDI to keep the JTAG state machine in a known state during power-up.

The PQFP-208 package has relatively long leads (compared to modern QFN/BGA). Limit clock edges to 10 ns or slower; for faster clocks use the -7 (7 ns) or -5 (5 ns) speed grade. Place the CPLD near the devices it interfaces with, and use short direct traces for high-speed signals (clocks, bus arbitration) to minimize reflections.

Do not confuse the original EPM7256SQC208-10 (non-RoHS, 5V core) with the lead-free EPM7256AEQC208-10N (3.3V core AEC revision). The 'AE' prefix indicates the Enhanced Core. Also, do not mix up MAX 7000S with MAX 7000B (e.g. EPM7256BQC208-7) - both share the same 208-PQFP footprint and macrocell count but have different architecture revisions and timing characteristics.
