5M570ZT144I5N Overview
A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic IC that sits between simple PAL/GAL arrays and larger FPGAs in the programmable logic hierarchy. CPLDs use flash- or EPROM-based configuration storage, provide deterministic pin-to-pin propagation delays, and typically serve as glue logic, bus interfaces, power-up sequencers, and state-machine controllers. The MAX V family is built on a low-power 1.8 V core process and is intended for low-cost, high-volume designs where instant-on non-volatile configuration and simple JTAG-based programming are required.
Key features include a 1.8 V core supply with 3.3 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, and 1.5 V LVCMOS/LVTTL I/O support via multi-voltage I/O banks, an internal flash configuration memory that eliminates external boot devices, and an in-system programmability (ISP) via JTAG (IEEE 1532 / IEEE 1149.1). The 144-TQFP package exposes 212 user I/Os for bus fan-out, and the device offers a typical internal toggle frequency above 118 MHz. The non-volatile flash cells support 100+ program/erase cycles and 20+ years of retention.
The MAX V architecture uses Logic Array Blocks (LABs) of 16 macro cells each, with each macro cell containing a programmable AND/OR register and a configurable flip-flop. Product-term allocation is performed automatically by Quartus II / Quartus Prime, and design entry accepts VHDL, Verilog, and schematic capture. The deterministic timing model simplifies static timing analysis, making the 5M570ZT144I5N well suited for control-path rather than data-path designs.
Typical applications include power-up and power-sequencing logic for FPGA and SoC boards, I/O expansion and voltage-level translation between 3.3 V and 1.8 V buses, peripheral glue logic on industrial controllers, JTAG-driven boot and configuration bridges, and small glue-logic state machines in telecom and storage systems.
When designing with the 5M570ZT144I5N, note that the I/O banks must each be powered before the core 1.8 V supply ramps; designers typically add a simple RC delay or supervisor to guarantee the sequence. Use the Quartus II software (legacy) or Quartus Prime (current) for synthesis and fitting, and target the JTAG ID 0x020F30DD for programmer detection.

5M570ZT144I5N 144-pin tqfp Pin Configuration Guide
Pin configuration for 5M570ZT144I5N (144-pin tqfp package). This digital IC includes GPIO, communication interfaces (UART, SPI, I2C), and power pins. Refer to the manufacturer datasheet for alternate pin functions and configuration options. Essential for embedded system design and PCB layout.

Typical Applications
5M570ZT144I5N is suitable for 6 applications: Power-Up Sequencing and Power Management, I/O Voltage Translation and Bus Bridging, Industrial Control and Factory Automation, FPGA / SoC Configuration Bridges, Telecom and Network Equipment Glue Logic, Legacy Interface Replacement and Board Modernization.
Power-Up Sequencing and Power Management
The 5M570ZT144I5N excels at power-up sequencing on FPGA and SoC baseboards where multiple voltage rails must come up in a specific order. The 9 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay and 212 user I/Os let the CPLD drive dozens of enable and reset lines simultaneously. Non-volatile flash configuration provides instant-on behavior, so the sequencing logic is active as soon as 1.8 V is available. Industrial-grade -40C to +100C operation suits outdoor or factory-floor equipment.
Recommended
I/O Voltage Translation and Bus Bridging
With multi-voltage LVCMOS 3.3/2.5/1.8/1.5 V I/O banks and 212 user I/Os, the 5M570ZT144I5N bridges legacy 5 V- or 3.3 V-tolerant peripherals to modern 1.8 V SoCs without external level shifters. The 440 macro cells hold hundreds of bidirectional buffers and bus-state machines. Quartus II / Quartus Prime synthesis automatically infers bus widths, and JTAG programming allows field upgrades without removing the board from service.
Recommended
Industrial Control and Factory Automation
Industrial controllers benefit from the 5M570ZT144I5N's -40C to +100C industrial temperature range, deterministic timing, and high-I/O count. The CPLD serves as glue logic between microcontrollers, motor-driver fault lines, optocouplers, and human-machine interface displays. 440 macro cells support encoder decoding, PWM conditioning, and emergency-stop interlocks; the 9 ns propagation delay is more than adequate for sub-microsecond safety responses.
Recommended
FPGA / SoC Configuration Bridges
When a baseboard has a master FPGA that needs to configure multiple slave FPGAs or a chain of transceivers, the 5M570ZT144I5N acts as a JTAG or SPI configuration bridge. Its non-volatile flash stores the slave-bitstream manifest, and its 212 I/Os drive dozens of configuration, PROG, and DONE signals. The instant-on flash makes the bridge ready before the master FPGA itself, simplifying boot choreography on telecom and storage cards.
Recommended
Telecom and Network Equipment Glue Logic
Telecom line cards and routers use the 5M570ZT144I5N as deterministic glue logic between network processors, PHY transceivers, and clocking devices. The CPLD performs PHY interrupt aggregation, LED driving, watchdog strobing, and reset distribution. 118.3 MHz internal frequency supports fast PHY management interfaces, and the industrial temperature grade is suited for outdoor remote-radio-head and base-station deployments.
Recommended
Legacy Interface Replacement and Board Modernization
Designers modernizing legacy boards that used older Altera MAX 3000/7000 CPLDs often migrate to the 5M570ZT144I5N because the same TQFP-144 footprint accepts both generations. The 1.8 V core and JTAG programming modernize the BOM while keeping the proven pinout. 440 macro cells translate legacy state-machine RTL into a smaller, lower-power part with instant-on flash configuration that improves field reliability.

Key Differentiators

- Highest user I/O count in the TQFP-144 MAX V line (vs 5M570ZT100I5N)
Design Notes
The 5M570ZT144I5N requires a 1.8 V core supply (VCCINT) plus one or more VCCIO rails per I/O bank. Power the 1.8 V rail first; if any VCCIO bank powers up before VCCINT, the device may enter an indeterminate configuration state. A simple RC delay or a dedicated voltage supervisor between VCCINT and VCCIO is recommended to guarantee sequence. All VCC pins (multiple pins on TQFP-144) must be tied together for uniform current distribution.
Route all TQFP-144 power and ground pins directly to the nearest power plane using short, wide traces; the TQFP-144 package relies on the PCB for thermal dissipation. Place 0.1 uF decoupling capacitors within 50 mils of every VCCINT/VCCIO pin and a 10 uF bulk capacitor near each bank cluster. Keep JTAG (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) traces short and parallel-avoided; add a 4.7 kohm pull-up on TCK if it is shareable with other JTAG devices on the chain.
Do not assume the 5M570ZT144I5N is pin-compatible with older MAX 7000-series TQFP-144 devices; although the package is identical, pin functions for JTAG, configuration, and I/O banks have been remapped. Always re-import the MAX V symbol from the Quartus library rather than copy-pasting an older MAX 7000 symbol. Note that the device IDCODE is 0x020F30DD; if the JTAG chain reads back a different ID, the chain order is wrong. Estimated: power consumption is roughly 30-50 mA in active mode and under 1 mA in standby, depending on toggle rate and I/O count.
Compliance Information
RoHS compliant per the Altera / Intel MAX V family datasheet; lead-free 'N' suffix confirmed. AEC-Q100 is not qualified on the standard industrial grade - choose the 5M570ZT144A5N automotive variant for AEC-Q100.
