EPM7256SQC208-15 概要

The Altera (Intel) EPM7256SQC208-15 is a high-density, high-performance Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) from the MAX 7000S family, featuring 256 macrocells, 16 logic array blocks (LABs), and 164 user I/O pins in a 208-pin PQFP package. The device delivers a 15 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay and operates from a single 4.75V to 5.25V supply, providing approximately 5,000 usable gates for glue-logic, bus-interface, and state-machine designs.

A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic device that combines multiple PAL-like macrocell blocks with a programmable interconnect matrix. Architecturally, CPLDs sit between simple SPLDs/PALs and larger FPGAs in the programmable logic hierarchy: like SPLDs they offer instant-on, deterministic, flash- or EPROM-backed configuration, but like FPGAs they integrate hundreds to thousands of gates with predictable timing. The MAX 7000S family uses Altera's second-generation MAX architecture with EEPROM-based configuration cells, eliminating the need for an external boot PROM and enabling in-system programmability (ISP) via JTAG.

Key features of the EPM7256SQC208-15 include 256 macrocells distributed across 16 LABs, a global clock network, programmable power management with pin-controlled turbo-bit disable for low-power standby, JTAG-compliant boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1), and four pin-compatible speed grades (7, 10, 12, 15 ns). The 'C' in the part number designates the commercial 0C to +70C operating range; '15' denotes the 15 ns pin-to-pin delay.

Typical applications include bus-bridging logic between microprocessors and peripherals, address decoding and chip-select generation in embedded systems, glue logic in telecommunications and networking equipment, industrial control state machines, and replacement of multiple discrete 74-series logic ICs. The 164 user I/Os comfortably support wide data and address buses plus control signals for legacy parallel interfaces.

When designing with the EPM7256SQC208-15, ensure 5V tolerance compatibility for the I/O banks, provide proper decoupling on VCCINT/VCCIO pins, and use the Altera MAX+PLUS II or Quartus II design tools for synthesis, fitting, and JTAG programming. Designers migrating to lower-density footprints should consider the speed-grade variants (EPM7256SQC208-10 for 10 ns, EPM7256SQC208-7 for 7 ns) which are pin-compatible drop-in upgrades.

🖥️

Microprocessor Bus-Bridging and Glue Logic

The EPM7256SQC208-15 is widely used as 5V glue logic between legacy microprocessors, memory, and peripherals. With 256 macrocells and 164 user I/Os in a 208-pin PQFP, it can decode full 24-32 bit address buses, generate chip selects for ROM/RAM/IO banks, and arbitrate interrupts without external 74-series TTL parts. The 15 ns pin-to-pin delay easily meets the timing of 33 MHz 80C186, 68k, and 80C51 microcontroller buses, while the 5V VCCINT matches standard TTL rails. Non-volatile EEPROM configuration means the CPLD powers up ready to run, eliminating boot PROM cost and complexity. Designers benefit from deterministic timing that simplifies worst-case analysis in safety-critical industrial controllers.

🔧

Address Decoding and Chip-Select Generation

The EPM7256SQC208-15 excels at address decoding for embedded systems, generating chip-select signals for memory banks and peripherals from a wide microprocessor address bus. Its 256 macrocells can hold dozens of independent address comparators in parallel, each producing a chip-select with deterministic 15 ns propagation - ideal for asynchronous memory and peripheral interfaces. The 164 user I/Os comfortably handle full 32-bit address plus control signal decoding in 80x86, MIPS, and ARM-based designs. JTAG-boundary-scan support allows in-system reprogramming for late-stage BOM changes, and the non-volatile EEPROM ensures the decoder table survives power cycles without boot memory.

🏭

Industrial Control State Machines

In industrial automation, the EPM7256SQC208-15 implements deterministic finite state machines for motor control sequences, safety interlocks, and PLC-style ladder-logic replacement. The 5V tolerance and commercial 0C to +70C operating range suit factory-floor enclosures, while the 16 LAB architecture supports parallel FSMs controlling multiple axes concurrently. The 5000 usable gates and 256 macrocells allow complex sequencer logic - encoder decoding, PWM generation, watchdog timers, and HMI button debouncing - all in a single chip. JTAG ISP enables firmware updates on deployed equipment without removing the CPLD, a key advantage over legacy PAL-based designs.

🌐

Telecommunications and Networking Equipment

The EPM7256SQC208-15 was a workhorse in telecom and networking hardware for PCI/CompactPCI bus arbitration, Utopia framing, and TDM bus multiplexing. Its 164 user I/Os and 15 ns delay handle 33 MHz PCI bus signals with margin, while per-macrocell power-down enables low standby current in always-on network appliances. The 208-pin PQFP footprint is shared with companion ASICs and ASSPs from that era, simplifying board layout. Non-volatile configuration prevents misprogramming from network glitches, and JTAG boundary-scan allows remote board-test access during manufacturing.

💡

Replacement of Multiple 74-Series TTL Logic

A single EPM7256SQC208-15 can replace dozens of 74LS, 74HC, and 74FTTL packages on legacy boards, freeing board area and reducing power consumption. With 256 macrocells, designers can consolidate address latches, bus transceivers, parity generators, and interrupt controllers into one 208-pin PQFP IC. The 5V TTL-compatible I/O eliminates level-shifters, and the deterministic 15 ns delay is comparable to 74LS TTL, making timing drop-in compatible. EEPROM-backed configuration survives factory reprogramming cycles, while JTAG ISP allows board-level logic changes during prototyping without re-spinning PCBs.

🔌

Legacy Peripheral Interface Bridging

The EPM7256SQC208-15 bridges legacy peripheral interfaces - ISA bus, parallel port, SCSI, IDE - to modern embedded CPUs. With 164 user I/Os, it can multiplex 16-bit ISA data with 24-bit address, plus control signals, in a single device. The 15 ns pin-to-pin delay matches 8 MHz ISA timing, and the 5V tolerance preserves compatibility with legacy peripheral cards. Designers use macrocell-based tri-state buffers to implement bidirectional bus transceivers with arbitration, replacing multiple 74F245/74F244 chips. Non-volatile configuration means the bridge logic is ready instantly at power-up, critical for boot-time peripheral access.

EPM7256SQC208-15 vs EPM7256SQC208-10 - which should I choose?
The EPM7256SQC208-15 and EPM7256SQC208-10 share the same 256-macrocell, 208-pin PQFP MAX 7000S architecture and are pin-compatible drop-in alternatives. The difference is speed grade: the '-10' offers 10 ns pin-to-pin delay versus 15 ns for the '-15'. Choose EPM7256SQC208-10 when timing margins are tight, and the '-15' when cost outweighs the 5 ns delay advantage.
Can the EPM7256SQC208-7 replace the EPM7256SQC208-15?
Yes. The EPM7256SQC208-7 is a faster pin-compatible drop-in replacement for the EPM7256SQC208-15, offering 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay in the same 208-pin PQFP package and 256-macrocell MAX 7000S family. The speed upgrade is transparent to existing designs as long as your timing constraints can absorb the improvement. Both parts are pin-to-pin compatible per the Xecor comparison data.
When should I choose the EPM7256SQC208-15 over a MAX II CPLD?
Choose the EPM7256SQC208-15 over a MAX II CPLD when you need 5V-tolerant I/O, an exact 256-macrocell density with 164 user I/Os in a legacy 208-pin PQFP footprint, or direct fit into an existing MAX 7000S board layout. According to Intel migration notes, MAX II is recommended for new low-power 3.3V designs but requires PCB redesign and is not a drop-in replacement.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the EPM7256SQC208-15?
The best drop-in replacements for the EPM7256SQC208-15 are other EPM7256SQC208 speed grades: EPM7256SQC208-7 (7.5 ns), EPM7256SQC208-10 (10 ns), and EPM7256BQC208-7 (7 ns, B-step revision). All share the same 208-pin PQFP footprint, 256 macrocells, and MAX 7000S architecture. They are functionally equivalent with timing improvements only.

The 'S' in MAX 7000S denotes in-system programmability via JTAG.
Is there an Intel (non-Altera) equivalent for the EPM7256SQC208-15?
No direct cross-brand drop-in equivalent exists for the EPM7256SQC208-15 in a 208-pin PQFP package. According to the cross-reference data, competing CPLDs from Lattice (e.g., ispMACH 4000 series) and Xilinx (XC9500 series) differ in package, pinout, and programming tools. Engineers seeking drop-in replacements should stay within the MAX 7000S family via speed-grade or revision variants.

選定ガイド

Choose the EPM7256SQC208-15 when you need a 5V-tolerant, 256-macrocell CPLD with JTAG ISP in a 208-pin PQFP for legacy designs operating at bus frequencies up to 33 MHz. It is the right pick for microprocessor glue logic, address decoding, and bus-bridging where 15 ns tPD provides adequate timing margin. If your design requires tighter timing (PCI 33 MHz, faster buses), select the pin-compatible EPM7256SQC208-10 or EPM7256SQC208-7 - both are drop-in upgrades with no PCB changes. For new designs, Intel recommends MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 CPLDs (3.3V), but those require PCB redesign and are not drop-in replacements. The MAX 7000 (non-S) variants (EPM7256AQC208-7, EPM7256BQC208-7) offer the same logic capacity but lack ISP and need a hardware programmer.

設計ノート

Provide separate decoupling for VCCINT (4.75V-5.25V) and VCCIO rails with 0.1 uF ceramic capacitors placed within 5 mm of each supply pin. The 208-pin PQFP package has multiple VCC/GND pins distributed across all four quadrants to maintain signal integrity for the 164 user I/Os. A bulk 10-100 uF tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor on each rail handles transient current demand during simultaneous output switching. Keep digital ground returns short and use a solid ground plane beneath the PQFP footprint to minimize VCC bounce on heavily loaded outputs.

The 208-pin PQFP package uses 0.5 mm lead pitch and requires careful PCB layout: 0.15-0.20 mm trace width, 0.15 mm trace spacing, and matched-length routing for critical clock or JTAG signals. Per the MAX 7000 datasheet family layout guidelines, fan-out traces on inner PCB layers should use via-in-pad or near-pad stitching to escape the fine-pitch gull-wing leads. Place the JTAG header (TDI/TMS/TCK/TDO) within 50 mm of the device to keep the boundary-scan chain reliable. Maintain continuous ground plane under the package thermal pad region even though PQFP does not have an exposed pad.

The EPM7256SQC208-15 outputs are TTL-compatible with 24 mA drive strength, suitable for driving terminated 5V buses but care must be taken with simultaneous switching outputs (SSO). Limit the number of simultaneously switching outputs to one LAB (16 macrocells) where possible to control ground bounce. For high-speed buses (>33 MHz), use 22-33 ohm series damping resistors on heavily loaded outputs to reduce ringing. The 15 ns pin-to-pin delay sets a maximum toggle frequency of approximately 33 MHz for registered signals and approximately 50 MHz for combinational paths under ideal conditions.

Do not confuse the speed-grade suffix with macrocell count: the '-15' denotes 15 ns tPD, not 1500 gates. EPM7256 has 256 macrocells regardless of speed grade. Also note that older MAX 7000 (non-S) variants like EPM7256AQC208-7 and EPM7256BQC208-7 lack in-system programmability and require a standalone programmer, while MAX 7000S parts (with the 'S' suffix) support JTAG ISP. When migrating designs between revisions, verify with Altera/Intel MAX+PLUS II legacy software since modern Quartus versions may not support the original MAX 7000 family.
