Typical Applications
5M240ZT144C5N is suitable for 6 applications: Microcontroller I/O Expansion and Bus Bridging, FPGA Configuration and Power-Sequencing State Machine, Industrial Control Logic and Interface Translation, LED Display Driver and Multiplex Control, Consumer Electronics Glue Logic, Test and Measurement Front-End Logic.
Microcontroller I/O Expansion and Bus Bridging
The 5M240ZT144C5N provides 114 user I/Os and 240 logic elements in a TQFP-144 footprint, making it a natural fit for expanding the limited GPIO of an MCU or for translating between mismatched bus standards (for example 3.3 V CMOS to 1.8 V LVCMOS). Because the non-volatile Flash configuration boots instantly, the CPLD is ready to drive output enables and chip-selects before the MCU completes its own firmware boot, eliminating glue-logic race conditions. Designers typically connect the MCU SPI or parallel bus to the CPLD and use the Quartus-compiled state machine to generate wait-states, level shifters, and interrupt steering. The 7.5 ns tPD1 supports 80 MHz+ asynchronous buses without inserting bubbles, and the 8 Kbits of User Flash Memory can store calibration data or board-revision identifiers.

FPGA Configuration and Power-Sequencing State Machine
Around an SRAM-based FPGA that takes tens of milliseconds to configure, the 5M240ZT144C5N is an ideal pre-boot supervisor: its non-volatile Flash configuration powers up ready in microseconds and can hold the FPGA nCONFIG line low, sequence multiple power rails, and verify POR thresholds before releasing the FPGA to boot. The 240 LEs are more than enough to implement a state machine with 8 to 16 states plus voltage-monitor inputs, and the 7.5 ns tPD1 ensures deterministic timing for FET gate drive signals. Compared with discrete logic or a small MCU, a single CPLD replaces four or five packages and consumes less PCB area. The JTAG chain (IEEE 1149.1 / 1532) lets engineers re-program the sequencer in-circuit during board bring-up.

Industrial Control Logic and Interface Translation
Industrial systems with mixed-voltage sensors, encoders, and 24 V field I/O require robust level translation and noise-tolerant glue logic. The 5M240ZT144C5N supports I/O voltages from 1.5 V to 3.3 V on a per-bank basis, allowing the CPLD to bridge directly between a 3.3 V MCU and 1.8 V or 2.5 V peripherals without external level shifters. The 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay and 1.47 GHz internal performance are sufficient for quadrature decoding of incremental encoders at >20 MHz, PWM generation up to several hundred kHz, and SPI-to-parallel expansion. Housed in a commercial 0 C to +85 C TQFP-144, the device fits enclosed control boxes with moderate ambient temperatures; for harsher environments select the 5M240ZT144I5N industrial or 5M240ZT144A5N automotive grade.
Recommended
LED Display Driver and Multiplex Control
Large dot-matrix LED panels and seven-segment LED clusters are commonly driven by a CPLD that multiplexes rows and columns while the main MCU feeds pixel data over SPI or parallel. The 5M240ZT144C5N offers 114 user I/Os, which is sufficient to drive a 16-row x 32-column multiplexed display with row-decoder outputs and column-driver enables. The 7.5 ns tPD1 supports column-refresh rates above 5 MHz, eliminating ghosting and flicker, and the non-volatile Flash boot means the display can light up its default startup pattern without waiting for the application MCU. Designers commonly use the User Flash Memory (UFM) to store gamma-correction tables that the CPLD applies on the fly.
Recommended
Consumer Electronics Glue Logic
Consumer products such as set-top boxes, smart-home hubs, and appliances often need a few dozen custom logic functions that do not warrant a full FPGA. The 5M240ZT144C5N delivers 240 logic elements and 114 I/Os in a small 22 mm TQFP-144 package, providing instant-on power-rail sequencing, HDMI / LVDS level shifting, button-matrix debouncing, and IR receiver decoding all in one chip. The device's Flash configuration means no external boot memory is required, saving BOM cost and PCB area in cost-sensitive consumer designs. The 0 C to +85 C commercial temperature grade covers the typical operating environment, and Intel's MAX V product longevity program secures long-term supply for consumer lifecycle.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Front-End Logic
Bench-top instruments and ATE fixtures need deterministic, fast switching between stimulus and measurement paths. The 5M240ZT144C5N, with its 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay, can multiplex analog-front-end signals, gate trigger events, and generate pulse trains for bench testers without the timing variability of microcontroller software. The JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) boundary-scan chain integrates with the test fixture's boundary-scan infrastructure for structural board test, and the 8 Kbit UFM stores instrument calibration coefficients. The TQFP-144 footprint and 1.5 V-3.3 V MultiVolt I/O make it easy to drop the CPLD directly into mixed-signal data-acquisition boards.

Key Differentiators
- Highest speed grade in the 5M240Z TQFP-144 family (vs 5M240ZT144C4N)
- Commercial temperature range vs industrial/automotive variants (vs 5M240ZT144I5N)
- Right-sized 240 LEs for typical glue logic (vs 5M2210ZF324I5N)
Design Notes
The 5M240ZT144C5N requires two rails: VCCINT (3.3 V, supplies the internal core LDO that derives 1.5 V) and one or more VCCIO rails (1.5 V to 3.3 V) per I/O bank. Decouple each VCCINT and VCCIO pin with a 100 nF X7R ceramic placed within 3 mm of the pin, plus a 10 uF bulk capacitor shared across all VCCIO banks. Power-on ramp should rise monotonically; the device does not require an external reset IC because an internal POR circuit resets the logic on ramp.
Route JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) with 50 ohm controlled impedance and keep them away from switching signals. The TQFP-144 has exposed die-attached pad on the bottom that should be soldered to a thermal pad connected to the ground plane to meet the datasheet thermal resistance of ~25 C/W. Leave 4 unused I/Os adjacent to JTAG as analog-friendly keeper pins if any analog signal is fed into the bank.
Do not leave JTAG pins floating: TDO is a tri-state output and TMS/TCK must be pulled in a known state through 10 kohm pull-ups to VCCIO for the device to boot correctly when JTAG is not in use. Also avoid driving the I/O pins before VCCIO has stabilized; MAX V outputs are tri-stated during POR. When migrating from a legacy MAX II design, double-check the JTAG instruction register length - MAX V uses a 10-bit IR vs MAX II's 10-bit IR, so chain configuration is identical, but boundary-scan test vectors may need regeneration.
Compliance Information
RoHS and lead-free per Intel/Altera MAX V product page. The standard C5N suffix is commercial grade (0 C to +85 C); AEC-Q100 qualification is not applicable to the commercial grade - use 5M240ZT144A5N for automotive qualification. Halogen-free status not explicitly stated in verified data; conflict-mineral compliance per Intel policy.
