Typical Applications
EPM5192AGC-15 is suitable for 6 applications: 32-Bit Microprocessor Bus Decoder, State-Machine and Sequencer Controller, Memory Address Decoder / Chip-Select Generator, TTL/CMOS Glue-Logic Consolidation, DMA Controller / Bus Arbiter, Legacy Industrial Control Logic.
32-Bit Microprocessor Bus Decoder
The EPM5192AGC-15 fits 32-bit microprocessor bus decoding applications because its 192 macrocells and 72 inputs allow entire address/data/control signal decoding in a single device, while the 15 ns tPD matches 33 MHz bus timing with margin. In a typical 68030 or 80386 bus interface, the device replaces multiple 74F138/74F139 decoders, latches chip-select and DTACK generation logic, and produces clean RAS/CAS or memory-mapped selects. With 64 I/O pins, it supports wide address buses without external expansion, and the 5 V CMOS I/O is directly compatible with TTL peripheral logic of that era. The predictable timing also simplifies worst-case AC analysis in safety-critical decoder paths.
Recommended
State-Machine and Sequencer Controller
The EPM5192AGC-15 is well suited to state-machine and sequencer controllers where multiple inputs must be polled in parallel and deterministic outputs produced with known latency. Its 192 macrocells can encode complex Moore/Mealy state machines with 16-32 states, while 64 I/O pins accommodate status inputs, control outputs, and handshake lines. The 15 ns tPD ensures state transitions complete within one 33 MHz clock cycle, enabling single-clock-step state machines without metastability risk. Compared with discrete 74LS/74F flip-flop chains, the integrated implementation improves noise immunity, reduces PCB area, and simplifies design changes via reprogramming rather than board rework.
Recommended
Memory Address Decoder / Chip-Select Generator
The EPM5192AGC-15 fits memory address decoder applications because its high input count supports full address-bus monitoring plus control signals (RD, WR, MREQ, CAS, RAS), and its macrocell density allows generation of 16-32 independent chip-select outputs. The 15 ns propagation delay ensures CS asserts within the same bus cycle as the address valid, which is critical for zero-wait-state memory interfaces at 25-33 MHz. Compared with cascaded 74LS138 decoders, the EPLD solution reduces package count, improves glitch immunity via registered outputs, and allows late-stage address-map changes via reprogramming rather than PCB rewire - ideal for prototype-to-production transitions.
Recommended
TTL/CMOS Glue-Logic Consolidation
The EPM5192AGC-15 is an excellent glue-logic consolidation vehicle, replacing dozens of 74LS00, 74LS151, 74LS153, 74LS244, and 74LS373 packages with a single ceramic PGA device. Its 192 macrocells and 64 I/O pins can absorb a complete board's worth of AND/OR/registered logic, while the 5 V CMOS I/O is fully compatible with legacy 74LS/74AS/74F TTL families. The 15 ns tPD matches or beats typical 74LS propagation delays, so timing closure is rarely an issue. In retrofit and obsolescence-management projects, the EPM5192 series allows legacy boards to be modernized without a full PCB redesign, preserving mechanical form factor and connectors.
Recommended
DMA Controller / Bus Arbiter
The EPM5192AGC-15 fits DMA controller and bus arbiter roles because its macrocell density handles multi-master arbitration trees (daisy-chain, priority, or rotating-priority) and its input count monitors HOLD/HLDA/REQ/ACK signals plus multiple bus-request lines. The 15 ns propagation delay ensures arbitration decisions complete within a single bus cycle, preventing deadlocks and bus contention. Registered outputs with programmable polarity simplify generation of grant signals, while the EPLD's deterministic timing allows precise worst-case latency calculation - important when the arbiter must guarantee bounded access latency to multiple masters.
Recommended
Legacy Industrial Control Logic
The EPM5192AGC-15 is used in long-lifecycle industrial control systems (factory automation, test equipment, military/aerospace subsystems) where the original MAX 5000 design must be maintained for 20-30+ year service intervals. Its ceramic PGA package and 5 V CMOS operation suit industrial temperature ranges and high-reliability applications, while the UV-erasable window allows field reprogramming for design updates. For obsolescence management, the EPM5192 family is typically replaced on a like-for-like basis using verified surplus stock, with new designs migrating to MAX 7000AE in equivalent logic capacity. Source traceability and burn-in testing are recommended when qualifying replacement parts.

Key Differentiators
- Fastest speed grade in the MAX 5000 family (vs EPM5192AGC-20)
- High input count supports wide bus monitoring (vs EPM5064LC)
- UV-erasable ceramic PGA supports development reuse (vs EPM5192AGC84-15)
Design Notes
Decouple the EPM5192AGC-15 with one 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor per VCC pin, placed as close to the package as the ceramic PGA socket allows. The MAX 5000 family draws transient currents during output switching that can exceed 200 mA per output bank; bulk decoupling with a 10-47 uF tantalum capacitor near the device improves rail stability. Estimated: total ICC at 25 MHz toggling on 32 outputs approaches 200-300 mA, so the 5 V supply must source at least 500 mA with adequate margin.
Mount the EPM5192AGC-15 in a low-profile PGA socket to allow UV erasure during development; production builds typically use a one-time-programmed (OTP) plastic PGA variant of the same family. Keep high-speed outputs (clock, chip-select, write strobes) short and impedance-controlled, and isolate TTL inputs with series termination if they exceed 6 inches. The ceramic PGA's thermal pad (if present) should be soldered to a ground pour to reduce junction temperature by 10-15 C under full I/O toggling load.
Do not assume modern CPLD development software (Quartus, Vivado, iCEcube2) supports the EPM5192 family; use Altera MAX+PLUS II version 10.x or older for design entry and fitting. When programming via the Altera programming hardware, ensure the device-erase cycle (UV exposure of 30-45 minutes at 12,000 uW/cm2 for windowed packages) is performed before re-programming, otherwise new patterns may overlap residual EPROM states. Note that ceramic PGA packages are not RoHS-compliant; for Pb-free manufacturing, plan a redesign to MAX 7000AE in PQFP/TQFP packages.
Compliance Information
