Safe Operating Area (SOA) & Thermal Characteristics
No official SOA curve available for this digital IC. Always operate within absolute maximum ratings specified in the datasheet. Ensure adequate cooling and derate as needed.
Typical Applications
EPM240T100I5N is suitable for 7 applications: Microcontroller I/O Expansion & Bus Bridging, Industrial Control & Factory Automation Logic, Power Sequencing & Supervisory Logic, LED Display & Lighting Control, Automotive & Transportation Subsystems (non-safety), Test & Measurement Front-End Logic, Legacy System Modernization & 74-Series Replacement.
Microcontroller I/O Expansion & Bus Bridging
The EPM240T100I5N adds configurable GPIO and protocol bridges to MCUs that have too few pins or lack a needed interface (I2C-to-SPI, UART-to-parallel, etc.). With 240 LEs, 80 user I/Os, and 8 Kbits of UFM, the device can implement state machines, timing generators, and small FIFOs in a single non-volatile chip. Its MultiVolt I/O supports direct interfacing to 1.5 V / 1.8 V / 2.5 V / 3.3 V MCU rails without level shifters. The industrial -40 Β°C to +100 Β°C range makes the part suitable for outdoor or factory-floor designs.
Recommended
Industrial Control & Factory Automation Logic
In PLCs, motor controllers, and sensor-conditioning front-ends, the EPM240T100I5N serves as deterministic glue logic that boots in microseconds and is immune to soft-config errors because of its on-chip flash storage. Its 80 user I/O and four MultiVolt banks handle mixed 5 V / 3.3 V / 1.8 V sensor rails, while the 240-LE capacity covers encoder decoding, PWM shaping, and fault-handling state machines. The industrial temperature range matches IEC 60068 harsh-environment profiles and is supported by a long-life-cycle product program from Intel.
Recommended
Power Sequencing & Supervisory Logic
The EPM240T100I5N can replace discrete supervisor ICs by sequencing multiple power rails using configurable delays and monitoring inputs from PG (power-good) signals. Its 8 Kbits of UFM allow storage of rail-trip thresholds and fault logs without an external EEPROM. MultiVolt I/O lets one CPLD supervise 1.0 V, 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V rails concurrently, and the deterministic 7 ns-class tPD keeps timing margins tight for hot-swap and brown-out events.
Recommended
LED Display & Lighting Control
LED walls, architectural lighting, and signage benefit from the EPM240T100I5N's ability to drive 80 outputs with precise PWM timing, color-mixing math, and DMX-512 / SPI / I2C input parsing. The 8 Kbits UFM hold calibration data for pixel-level brightness compensation. Because the device boots instantly from flash, displays come up with their last pattern even after a power cycle, no re-flash needed.
Recommended
Automotive & Transportation Subsystems (non-safety)
Although not AEC-Q100 qualified, the EPM240T100I5N's industrial temperature range and flash-backed non-volatility make it suitable for non-safety automotive subsystems such as body-control accessories, infotainment interface bridges, and aftermarket modules. Its small TQFP-100 footprint and Quartus II toolchain shorten design cycles for short-run vehicle programs. Designers targeting safety-critical rails should still pick an AEC-Q100 part.
Recommended
Test & Measurement Front-End Logic
In bench-top instruments, the EPM240T100I5N handles trigger routing, channel multiplexing, range switching, and counter prescalers that would otherwise require multiple 74-series packages. The MultiVolt I/O connects directly to 1.8 V ADCs, 3.3 V FPGAs, and 5 V analog front-ends. The 8 Kbits UFM stores per-unit calibration constants readable over JTAG, reducing manual trimming in production.
Recommended
Legacy System Modernization & 74-Series Replacement
The EPM240T100I5N consolidates dozens of 74HC/74AHC logic gates, muxes, and flip-flops into one programmable device, simplifying PCB layout, BOM, and inventory. Engineers redesigning legacy boards can re-implement standard logic functions in Quartus II HDL or schematic capture and migrate the schematic netlist without changing the TQFP-100 footprint. Re-programmability also enables late-stage ECOs that would otherwise require a board spin.

Key Differentiators
- Industrial temperature grade (-40 to +100 Β°C) for harsh environments (vs EPM240T100C5N)
- Fastest industrial speed grade available in TQFP-100 footprint (vs EPM240T100C4N)
- Non-volatile flash configuration - true instant-on with no boot PROM (vs SRAM-based small FPGAs)
- On-chip 8 Kbit UFM eliminates external EEPROM in many designs (vs Discrete CPLD + external EEPROM)
Design Notes
The EPM240T100I5N requires a clean 3.3 V VCCINT rail and up to four VCCIO rails (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V) for its I/O banks. Decouple each VCCIO pin with a 0.1 Β΅F X7R ceramic placed within 3 mm of the package, and add a single 10 Β΅F bulk capacitor per bank on the same side of the PCB. Estimated: typical ICCINT is in the low milliampere range during operation; peak inrush during in-system programming (ISP) may reach tens of milliamperes, so size the 3.3 V regulator to handle ISP transients.
TQFP-100 has 0.5 mm pitch leads - use a 4-layer PCB with continuous ground plane under the device to provide a low-impedance return path for switching outputs. Route JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) away from clock or high-speed I/O traces to avoid noise coupling into the boundary-scan logic. Keep all four VCCIO planes as islands tied only at the decoupling caps to prevent cross-bank noise injection.
Do not leave unused I/O pins floating - configure them as outputs driving a defined logic level, or as inputs with weak pull-ups enabled in the Quartus II pin assignment. Floating inputs can draw excess ICCIO current and may cause inadvertent toggling. Also, verify VCCIO bank assignments before power-up; driving a 5 V signal into a 3.3 V VCCIO bank will damage the I/O. Refer to the MAX II handbook for the exact bank-to-pin mapping for the TQFP-100 package.
For JTAG-ISP chains that include the EPM240T100I5N alongside other devices, place a 4.7 kΞ© pull-up on TCK and TMS, and TMS-to-ground if ISP is unused, to keep the JTAG state machine in a known reset state during power-up. Estimated: trace lengths of TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO should not exceed 150 mm on FR-4 without a series-termination resistor to avoid ringing on the 10-30 MHz TCK edge used by the ByteBlaster or USB-Blaster download cables.
Compliance Information
RoHS and lead-free per Intel/Altera product declaration and DigiKey/Mouser listings. Not AEC-Q100 qualified - the I-grade temperature range is industrial, not automotive qualified. Verify JEDEC J-STD-020 MSL rating from the device label before reflow.
