Typical Applications
EPM7192EGM160-15 is suitable for 7 applications: Microprocessor Address Decoding, ISA / PCI Bus Interface Bridge, Industrial Control State Machines, ASIC/FPGA Glue Logic Replacement, Military/Aerospace Avionics, Peripheral Controller / UART Multiplexing, Legacy System Maintenance / EOL Redesign.
Microprocessor Address Decoding
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits address decoding in 16-bit and 32-bit microprocessor systems where deterministic 15 ns pin-to-pin delay and 192 macrocells provide ample capacity for mapping chip-select logic across large memory and peripheral maps. The 5 V core with 3.3 V/5 V configurable I/O allows direct interface to legacy 5 V CPUs (8086, 68000, V40) and modern 3.3 V microcontrollers without level shifters. Its instant-on EEPROM-based fabric eliminates PROM/PLD configuration delays at boot, which is critical for systems where the CPU must see valid chip-select signals immediately after reset. Reference design patterns from the MAX 7000 datasheet demonstrate decoding of up to 24 address lines plus wait-state insertion logic within a single device.
Recommended
ISA / PCI Bus Interface Bridge
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits ISA and PCI bus bridging applications where its 192 macrocells implement bus-state machines, address/data demultiplexing, and interrupt steering logic. The 5 V tolerant I/O with 3.3 V PCI compliance allows direct connection to PCI bus signals, while the 124 user I/O pins handle full 16-bit ISA or 32-bit PCI bus widths with margin for control signals. The 15 ns tPD satisfies PCI 2.1 timing budgets for buffer-decoded chip selects, and the JTAG interface supports boundary-scan board test per IEEE 1149.1.
Recommended
Industrial Control State Machines
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits industrial control state machines where deterministic, glitch-free registered logic drives relays, motor-control signals, and safety interlocks. The 192 macrocells accommodate large Moore or Mealy state machines (40+ states) with combinational output decoding, while the ceramic PGA-160 package withstands industrial temperature ranges and high-vibration factory environments. The non-volatile EEPROM fabric eliminates the need for external boot PROM and is immune to power-supply glitches, satisfying IEC 61508 SIL-2 logic requirements in some implementations.
Recommended
ASIC/FPGA Glue Logic Replacement
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits glue-logic consolidation around ASICs and FPGAs where discrete 74xx logic and small PLDs would otherwise consume board area. With 192 macrocells, the part absorbs 30-50 equivalent 74LS gates plus registered state, reducing chip count and improving timing closure by collapsing inter-chip delays into a single 15 ns device. The 124 user I/O pins support wide bus consolidation between an FPGA and its peripheral memory, and JTAG programmability simplifies prototype bring-up and field updates.
Recommended
Military/Aerospace Avionics
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits military and aerospace avionics programs where its ceramic PGA-160 package, wide operating temperature range, and mature Altera MAX 7000 supply chain satisfy legacy program requirements. The through-hole PGA socket supports high-shock and high-vibration environments typical of avionics and missile platforms, and the part's ITAR/legacy qualification history in defense programs makes it the preferred choice for ongoing production. For new defense designs, consult the Altera/Intel Military & Aerospace product line for current QML-V/QML-Q equivalents.
Recommended
Peripheral Controller / UART Multiplexing
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits peripheral multiplexing designs where multiple UARTs, parallel ports, or GPIO expanders share a single bus. The 192 macrocells implement baud-rate generators, FIFO flags, and protocol-state logic for up to 8 UART channels, while the 124 I/O pins accommodate parallel-port data, status, and handshake signals with margin for interrupt steering. The 15 ns timing supports 1 Mbaud+ UART operation, and the JTAG interface enables in-field firmware updates for protocol reconfiguration.
Recommended
Legacy System Maintenance / EOL Redesign
The EPM7192EGM160-15 fits ongoing maintenance and repair of legacy systems originally designed around the MAX 7000 family where re-spinning the logic into a newer CPLD would require costly board rework and re-qualification. With NRND status, the part remains available through 2026 in finite distributor stock for service replacement, and its pin-compatible variants in the same 160-pin package (e.g. EPM7192EGM160-20) allow direct substitution when slower timing is acceptable. For new designs, plan migration to MAX II, MAX V, or MAX 10 families.

Key Differentiators
- Highest macrocell density in MAX 7000 PGA-160 family at 15 ns speed grade (vs EPM7160SQC160-10)
- Ceramic PGA-160 package for high-reliability through-hole assembly (vs EPM7192EQC160-15)
- 5 V core with 3.3 V/5 V configurable I/O for mixed-voltage system design (vs MAX II EPM570T144C5N)
Design Notes
The EPM7192EGM160-15 requires a 5 V ±5% supply on VCCINT pins; use a low-ESR bulk capacitor of at least 22 µF plus 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling near each VCC pin group. The I/O banks (VCCIO) can be independently powered at 3.3 V or 5 V, but mixed-voltage banks must be tied to the same reference per bank - verify the pinout from the MAX 7000 datasheet to identify which pins belong to which bank. Inrush current during in-system programming is typically <50 mA but can spike during JTAG bulk-erase.
The 160-pin PGA package requires a through-hole PGA socket (e.g. 160-pin machined-pin socket) - wire-wrap or solder-tail sockets introduce inductance that may degrade the 15 ns timing budget at high fanout. For prototype bring-up, use a zero-insertion-force (ZIF) socket to allow repeated JTAG programming cycles. Keep all signal traces under 50 mm and use a ground plane on layer 2 to minimize crosstalk between the 124 user I/O signals.
Do not confuse the EPM7192EGM160-15 (ceramic PGA-160) with the EPM7192EQC160-15 (plastic QFP-160) - the packages have different pin assignments despite the same 160-pin count, and PCB layout cannot be reused. Always confirm the temperature grade from the datasheet: 'GM' suffix indicates ceramic PGA military/industrial grade, while 'GC' suffix indicates ceramic BGA, and 'QC' indicates plastic QFP commercial. JTAG chain termination requires 4.7 kΩ pull-ups on TMS and TDI per IEEE 1149.1.
Estimated: at maximum toggle rate (124 I/O at 20 MHz CMOS load) the EPM7192EGM160-15 ceramic PGA dissipates approximately 1.5-2 W typical, well within the ceramic package's thermal envelope of ~2.5 W at 25 °C ambient. The ceramic PGA's θJA is approximately 25 °C/W. For forced-air cooling or extended-temperature operation, monitor junction temperature and provide at least 100 LFM airflow to maintain reliability.
Compliance Information
Ceramic PGA-160 packages from the MAX 7000E family predate the RoHS directive (2006); most variants are non-RoHS. Lead-free status is unknown from verified web data - confirm with the manufacturer datasheet for the specific date code. Not applicable for AEC-Q100 (CPLD not automotive-qualified by default).
