Typical Applications
EPM7160STC100-10F is suitable for 6 applications: Bus Interface Bridging (PCI/ISA/VME), Address Decoding & Chip-Select Generation, High-Speed Glue Logic Replacement, Industrial Control & State-Machine Controllers, Legacy System Modernization & I/O Expansion, Communication Peripherals & Protocol Bridging.
Bus Interface Bridging (PCI/ISA/VME)
The EPM7160STC100-10F fits bus-bridge applications because its 160 macrocells, 84 user I/O pins, and 10 ns tPD deliver deterministic, fast address decoding and control-signal translation between legacy and modern bus standards. With 5 V-tolerant I/O and JTAG ISP, it can glue a 5 V PCI bus to a 3.3 V local bus, generate chip selects, and arbitrate interrupts in a single device. The SameFrame pin-out lets designers swap densities (EPM7128S, EPM7160S, EPM7192S, EPM7256S) on the same PCB as bridge logic complexity evolves.
Recommended
Address Decoding & Chip-Select Generation
The EPM7160STC100-10F is well suited for address-decoding tasks because its 10 ns tPD delivers sub-microsecond chip-select latency and its 160 macrocells can decode wide address buses with multiple output enables. Each macrocell provides a programmable register with clock/enable, supporting registered or combinatorial chip-select outputs that fire within one propagation delay. The 5 V tolerant I/O allow direct connection to legacy memory-mapped buses without level shifters, simplifying board layout in industrial and embedded designs.
Recommended
High-Speed Glue Logic Replacement
The EPM7160STC100-10F replaces dozens of 74-series TTL/CMOS gates by integrating the entire glue-logic netlist into a single non-volatile device, reducing board area, BOM cost, and signal-skew issues. Its 160 macrocells and 84 I/O pins can absorb typical board-level glue functions such as bus multiplexers, wait-state generators, and reset distribution. Because the part is EEPROM-based, the design powers up in a known state with no boot delay, eliminating the cold-start races common with discrete flip-flop implementations.
Recommended
Industrial Control & State-Machine Controllers
The EPM7160STC100-10F is widely used in 5 V industrial control systems because its deterministic timing and 84 I/O pins allow implementation of complex Moore/Mealy state machines with parallel I/O. Industrial-grade variants (EPM7160STI100-10) extend the operating range to -40 Β°C to +85 Β°C for harsh environments. The JTAG interface supports in-field firmware updates via ISP, enabling remote reconfiguration of PLC I/O expanders and motor-control sequencers without removing the board.
Recommended
Legacy System Modernization & I/O Expansion
The EPM7160STC100-10F modernizes aging 5 V systems by adding programmable I/O expansion and protocol translation without redesigning the host board. Its EEPROM non-volatility preserves configuration across power cycles, and its 100-pin TQFP SameFrame pin-out allows the EPM7128S, EPM7160S, EPM7192S, and EPM7256S densities to be swapped as I/O requirements grow. This SameFrame strategy is ideal for migration projects that need to extend product life without changing the PCB.
Recommended
Communication Peripherals & Protocol Bridging
The EPM7160STC100-10F is well suited for communication peripherals because its fast 10 ns tPD and abundant I/O support real-time protocol conversion between UART, SPI, IΒ²C, and parallel interfaces. With 160 macrocells, designers can implement stateful protocol engines, FIFO flag logic, and DMA handshaking in one chip. The 5 V I/O tolerance allows direct interfacing with RS-232/RS-485 transceivers without level shifting, simplifying the BOM for serial-port expansion cards and embedded communication modules.

Key Differentiators
- 160 macrocells with 10 ns tPD in the MAX 7000S family (vs EPM7128STC100-10)
- 100 MHz fMAX with deterministic 5 V operation (vs EPM7160STC100-6)
- Lead-free (Pb-free) RoHS-compliant finish (vs EPM7160STC100-10 (no F suffix))
- Non-volatile EEPROM technology with ISP via JTAG (vs SRAM-based FPGAs)
Design Notes
Estimated: the EPM7160STC100-10F draws approximately 100-300 mA from VCCINT (5.0 V) depending on logic utilization and toggle rate. Decouple each VCC pin with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the pin, and add a bulk 10-47 Β΅F electrolytic or tantalum capacitor near the package. The TQFP-100 has multiple VCC/GND pairs; ensure each pair is decoupled even if pin-out suggests sharing. The device supports multi-volt I/O operation, so VCCIO may be tied to 5.0 V, 3.3 V, or 2.5 V depending on the connected logic.
Do not leave unused I/O pins floating - configure them as outputs driving low or as inputs with the internal pull-up enabled. Floating inputs can draw excessive supply current and cause oscillation. Ensure the JTAG chain is correctly terminated: connect TRST to VCC if not used, or tie it low through a 10 kΞ© resistor per IEEE 1149.1 recommendations. When migrating from MAX+PLUS II to Quartus II designs, recompile the project because the fitter algorithms differ and old timing constraints may not transfer cleanly.
Route JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) with impedance-controlled traces and avoid running them parallel to switching signals for more than 25 mm to prevent crosstalk. Keep programming header traces short (<50 mm total) and add 10 kΞ© pull-ups on TMS, TDI, and TCK to keep the JTAG state machine in reset during normal operation. The 100-pin TQFP has 0.5 mm pitch, so use fine-pitch PCB fabrication (β₯4 mil trace/space) and consider via-in-pad for ground stitching beneath the exposed die pad.
Compliance Information
Lead-free (Pb-free) finish indicated by F suffix per Altera/Intel product numbering convention. RoHS compliance verified by manufacturer declaration. AEC-Q100 not applicable - this is a commercial-grade (0 to +70 Β°C) logic device; choose EPM7160STI100-10 for industrial temperature range.
