Typical Applications
EPM5032DI-25 is suitable for 6 applications: TTL/CMOS Glue Logic Replacement, Address Decoder and Chip-Select Generator, State Machine Controller, Bus Arbitration Logic, Legacy Industrial Control Logic, Military and Aerospace Avionics (Legacy).
TTL/CMOS Glue Logic Replacement
The EPM5032DI-25 consolidates dozens of 74LS/74F glue-logic gates - decoders, muxes, latches, comparators - into a single 32-macrocell PLD with 320 product terms and 16 bidirectional I/O pins. Its 25 ns propagation delay (62.5 MHz fMAX) is fast enough for address decoding, chip-select generation, and bus-interface logic in legacy 8-bit and 16-bit microprocessor systems where discrete SSI/MSI packages would otherwise consume significant board area. Use it to replace 5-10 discrete 74-series packages while preserving the original circuit topology.
Recommended
Address Decoder and Chip-Select Generator
With 32 macrocells and 24 array inputs, the EPM5032DI-25 can implement complex address-decoding trees for memory-mapped peripherals, dual-port memory arbitration, and chip-select steering across multiple address ranges. The 25 ns tPD through the AND-OR-PIA path keeps the decoded /CS signal within one clock cycle at 25 MHz, while the registered outputs provide glitch-free select generation. This is a classic MAX 5000 application and remains in use in legacy VME, ISA, and proprietary backplane designs.
Recommended
State Machine Controller
The EPM5032DI-25's 16 programmable macrocell flip-flops (configurable as D, T, JK, or SR) and 320 product terms make it well suited to medium-complexity state machines - 8 to 16 states with combinational outputs and inputs - used in serial-protocol controllers, sequencers, and industrial control logic. Each registered output can drive a state-bit while the combinational product-term logic implements the next-state and output decoder. The 62.5 MHz fMAX supports state transitions at sub-microsecond speeds typical of telecommunications and instrumentation timing.
Recommended
Bus Arbitration Logic
Multi-master bus systems (VME, Multibus, proprietary backplanes) require deterministic arbitration logic - request/grant handshakes, priority encoders, and bus-mux control - which maps naturally to the EPM5032DI-25's AND-OR sum-of-products architecture. The 24 array inputs handle multiple bus-request lines and grant outputs, while the 16 registered outputs can hold bus ownership latches. The 25 ns propagation delay matches the arbitration timing budgets of legacy 8/16-bit backplane designs without inserting wait states.
Recommended
Legacy Industrial Control Logic
Industrial control systems deployed in the 1990s - PLCs, motor drives, process-control instrumentation - frequently use the EPM5032DI-25 for custom sequencing, fault-handling, and I/O-conditioning logic. Its 5 V TTL-compatible I/O, ceramic DIP package (suitable for high-temperature and high-vibration environments when socketed), and 32-macrocell capacity handle typical 16-I/O PLC rack modules. The UV-erasable window allows field re-programming during commissioning, while the NRND status means long-term support requires inventory planning or migration to MAX II CPLDs.
Recommended
Military and Aerospace Avionics (Legacy)
The EPM5032DI-25 was widely deployed in 1990s military and aerospace avionics where its ceramic windowed DIP package, CMOS radiation tolerance, and 5 V supply met reliability requirements for flight-control, navigation, and communications subsystems. With 32 macrocells it implements medium-complexity glue logic between MIL-STD-1553 bus controllers, discrete sensor interfaces, and actuator drivers. Long-term support for these systems requires obsolete-component sourcing and lot-trace verification - the part's NRND status as of 2026-09-12 means new designs should migrate to radiation-tolerant FPGAs or modern CPLDs.

Key Differentiators
- UV-erasable ceramic windowed package for field re-programmability (vs EPM5032DC-25 (plastic DIP OTP))
- Higher macrocell density than MAX 5000 16-cell predecessors (vs EPM5016DC-20)
- 25 ns speed grade balances cost and performance (vs EPM5032DI-20)
Design Notes
The EPM5032DI-25 is a UV-erasable ceramic DIP and MUST be socketed (not soldered) if you need to re-program it. Soldering directly to the PCB prevents UV erasure through the quartz window and makes field re-programming impossible. Use a machined-pin DIP socket (e.g., 3M Textool or Aries) for development and prototype work; for production volumes, migrate to the OTP plastic-DIP EPM5032DC-25 variant of the same die.
Place the EPM5032DI-25 close to its associated logic to minimize the 25 ns propagation-delay budget being eaten by PCB trace delay. At TTL edge rates (2-3 ns rise time), trace delays of ~15 cm/inch add approximately 1.5 ns/inch; keep all related traces under 6 inches to stay within timing margin. Use a solid ground plane under the device and decoupling capacitors (0.1 uF ceramic + 10 uF tantalum) within 5 mm of VCC pins to suppress switching noise on the 5 V rail.
The EPM5032DI-25 operates from a single 5 V +/- 10% supply. Each output can sink/source 24 mA (TTL compatible), and the device typically draws ICC of approximately 100-200 mA depending on output loading and toggle rate. Add bulk decoupling (47-100 uF) at the board entry point and local 0.1 uF ceramics at every VCC pin. Estimated: at 50% utilization and 20 MHz toggle rate, expect approximately 150 mA ICC - design the 5 V regulator with at least 50% headroom.
Do not design the EPM5032DI-25 into NEW production designs as of 2026-09-12. The part is NRND with limited remaining wafer stock and 8-12 week lead times. For new designs, migrate to the Altera (Intel) MAX II EPM240T100C5N, MAX V EPM5V256A5N, or MAX 10 EPM10CL16U256C8G - these provide JTAG in-system programming, lower power, higher density, and active lifecycle status. The MAX 5000 family uses legacy MAX+PLUS II or A+PLUS development software which is no longer supported by Intel PSG.
