EPM7256AETI144-7N Visão geral

The Altera (now Intel) EPM7256AETI144-7N is a 5K-gate, 256-macrocell EE CMOS CPLD from the MAX 7000A family, packaged in a 144-pin TQFP and operating from a 3.3V core supply with 5.0V-tolerant I/O.

A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a non-volatile programmable logic IC that provides instant-on behavior, deterministic timing, and flexible glue-logic integration. CPLDs sit hierarchically below FPGAs and above discrete 74-series logic: they offer more density than discrete logic but lower latency and simpler tool flow than FPGAs, making them ideal for bus decoding, address mapping, state-machine control, and I/O expansion in cost-sensitive, low-power systems.

Key features of the EPM7256AETI144-7N include 256 macrocells, 36 user I/Os (industrial-grade), pin-to-pin logic delays of 7.5 ns, a maximum internal counter frequency of 126.6 MHz, and JTAG-based in-system programmability via the IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan interface. The MAX 7000A architecture combines a programmable AND/OR array with macrocell flip-flops and per-pin programmable output slew-rate control.

This part is built on a 0.3 µm EEPROM process node with 5V-tolerant I/O, allowing direct interface to legacy 5V peripherals without level shifters. The 144-pin TQFP offers 36 dedicated user I/Os, four dedicated inputs, and global control signals for clock, clear, and output enable. MultiVolt I/O supports mixed-voltage rails in designs bridging 5.0V and 3.3V domains.

Typical applications include peripheral-interface bridging (PCI, ISA, VME bus decoding), state-machine-based motor and servo control, glue-logic replacement of multiple discrete 74-series devices, address decoding for memory-mapped microcontrollers, and industrial-control systems requiring instant-on non-volatile configuration. The industrial temperature grade (-40 °C to +85 °C) supports harsh-environment deployment.

When designing with this part, ensure that the Quartus II / MAX+PLUS II toolchain is used for synthesis and fitting. Reserve at least one JTAG pin (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) group in the pinout to support in-system programming, and decouple every VCCINT and VCCIO pin with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 5 mm of the package.

Aplicações típicas

EPM7256AETI144-7N é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: PCI / ISA Bus Decoder and Address Mapping, Glue-Logic Replacement for 74-Series TTL, Motor and Servo Control State Machines, Industrial PLC and Process Control, Memory-Mapped Address Decoding for Microcontrollers, Legacy 5V-to-3.3V Mixed-Voltage Bridge.

🖥️

PCI / ISA Bus Decoder and Address Mapping

The EPM7256AETI144-7N's 256 macrocells and 7.5 ns pin-to-pin logic delay make it ideal for ISA and legacy PCI bus decoder applications. Its instant-on non-volatile EEPROM configuration eliminates the FPGA configuration-PROM overhead, critical for systems that must respond to bus cycles within microseconds of power-up. The 5V-tolerant I/O pins interface directly to legacy 5V peripheral cards without level shifters, reducing BOM cost and board area in industrial backplane designs. Quartus II schematics typically use 40-60 macrocells for chip-select decode plus 20 macrocells for wait-state insertion, leaving headroom for future feature upgrades within the same package.

🏭

Glue-Logic Replacement for 74-Series TTL

The EPM7256AETI144-7N consolidates multiple discrete 74LS/74HC logic devices (decoders, multiplexers, latches, flip-flops) into a single 144-pin TQFP CPLD. The 5,000 usable gates and 256 macrocells replace 8-15 standard logic packages on a typical motherboard, which reduces PCB area by 30-50% and eliminates inter-chip propagation delay skew. The deterministic 7.5 ns tPD is comparable to a 74F-series gate, so timing analysis carries over with minor margin adjustment. Industrial-grade temperature range supports factory-floor and outdoor-enclosure deployment where discrete-logic reliability is marginal.

🏭

Motor and Servo Control State Machines

The EPM7256AETI144-7N's deterministic 126.6 MHz internal counter frequency and 36 user I/Os make it suitable for BLDC, stepper, and servo motor control state machines. The MAX 7000A macrocell flip-flops deliver glitch-free state transitions at PWM carrier frequencies up to 50 kHz, with the 5V-tolerant I/O directly driving industrial gate drivers and Hall-effect sensor inputs. Designers typically allocate 100 macrocells for the commutation state machine, 50 macrocells for PWM and fault handling, and the remaining macrocells for encoder quadrature decoding and overcurrent protection logic.

🏭

Industrial PLC and Process Control

The EPM7256AETI144-7N operates across the -40 °C to +85 °C industrial temperature range, making it suitable for programmable logic controller (PLC) backplanes, distributed I/O modules, and process-control interfaces. Its 36 user I/Os multiplex optically-isolated 24V digital inputs and relay-driver outputs in a typical 32-channel module. The non-volatile EEPROM configuration survives power cycling without requiring a separate boot PROM, an essential feature for IEC 61131-2 industrial-control equipment that must restart deterministically after brownouts.

🖥️

Memory-Mapped Address Decoding for Microcontrollers

The EPM7256AETI144-7N's fast 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay and abundant macrocells enable complex memory-mapped address decoding for embedded microcontrollers, including ARM7, Cortex-M3, and 8051 derivatives. Designers implement 4-8 chip-select signals plus bank-switching and wait-state generation in a single device, replacing discrete 74HC138/139/32 decoder trees. The JTAG-supported in-system programmability lets firmware engineers update the decoder map during development without reworking the PCB, and the 5V-tolerant I/O supports legacy 8051-style microcontrollers operating at 5V rails.

⚡

Legacy 5V-to-3.3V Mixed-Voltage Bridge

The EPM7256AETI144-7N's MultiVolt I/O supporting 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V rails in a single device makes it ideal for mixed-voltage system bridges between legacy 5V microcontrollers and modern 3.3V peripherals. VCCINT powers the core at 3.3V while VCCIO banks operate at 5V for upstream interfaces and 3.3V for downstream interfaces, eliminating discrete level-shifters. This is a common configuration in industrial-control retrofit designs where new 3.3V ADC/DAC ICs must interface with existing 5V PLC backplanes without redesigning the entire motherboard.

According to the Altera MAX 7000A datasheet, the 5.0V-tolerant I/O enables direct interface to legacy 5V peripherals without external level shifters, simplifying mixed-voltage system design.
How many macrocells does EPM7256AETI144-7N have?
The EPM7256AETI144-7N contains 256 macrocells and approximately 5,000 usable gates, packaged in the 144-pin TQFP with 36 user I/Os (industrial variant). This density places it at the mid-range of the MAX 7000A family, suitable for bus decoding, state-machine control, and multi-chip glue-logic consolidation.
What is the maximum toggle frequency of EPM7256AETI144-7N?
The EPM7256AETI144-7N delivers a maximum internal counter frequency of 126.6 MHz with a pin-to-pin logic delay (tPD) of 7.5 ns. According to the Altera datasheet, the EE-process architecture provides deterministic timing that does not shift with logic density, unlike SRAM-based FPGAs, which simplifies timing closure in production designs.
Is EPM7256AETI144-7N obsolete or still active?

Lead time for the EPM7256AETI144-7N is stock-to-2 weeks at most authorized distributors as of 2026-09-13. Because the part is in NRND status, Intel has not committed to long-term production; buyers should qualify second-source replacements such as the EPM7256AETI144-7 or migrate to MAX V CPLDs before existing stock is exhausted.
EPM7256AETI144-7N vs EPM7256AETC100-7N - which is better?
Both are 256-macrocell MAX 7000A CPLDs, but the EPM7256AETI144-7N ships in the 144-pin TQFP (more I/O) while the EPM7256AETC100-7N uses the 100-pin TQFP. According to the Altera datasheet, the -7N is preferred when more user I/Os are required; the -100-pin variant is preferred when PCB area is constrained. The two are not pin-compatible and require PCB redesign to swap.
EPM7256AETI144-7N vs LC4256V-75T144E - which fits 3.3V designs?
The EPM7256AETI144-7N (Altera MAX 7000A, 7.5 ns tPD, 3.3V core, 5V-tolerant I/O) and LC4256V-75T144E (Lattice ispMACH 4000V, 7.5 ns tPD, 3.3V core) are functional drop-in equivalents in the 144-pin TQFP footprint. According to Utmel parametric data, both deliver 256 macrocells and 7.5 ns logic delay; the Lattice part is in active production, while the Altera part is NRND.
When should I choose EPM7256AETI144-7N over a MAX V CPLD?
Choose the EPM7256AETI144-7N when you must maintain a legacy MAX 7000A design with proven Quartus II compiled netlists, or when the design requires 5V-tolerant I/O that the MAX V family does not offer. According to Intel's migration guide, new designs should select MAX V (5M240ZE64) or MAX II for lower power and active lifecycle; legacy users can keep the -7N for in-service systems.
What Lattice equivalent replaces EPM7256AETI144-7N in the same footprint?
The Lattice LC4256V-75T144E (ispMACH 4000V, 256 macrocells, 144-pin TQFP, 7.5 ns tPD, 3.3V) is a verified functional drop-in equivalent in the same 144-pin TQFP package, sourced from the Alternatives Cross-Reference web data. Designers migrating from Altera tools to Lattice ispLEVER Classic must re-synthesize the design, but the PCB footprint remains identical.
Where can I download the EPM7256AETI144-7N datasheet PDF?
The EPM7256AETI144-7N datasheet PDF is hosted on datasheetq.com and datasheets.com as the official Altera document, accessible via the Intel FPGA legacy product archive (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/products/cpld/max-series/max-7000/support.html) as of 2026-09-13. The datasheet contains timing models, pinout diagrams, and Quartus II device-support files.
Where to find the EPM7256AETI144-7N pinout diagram?
The EPM7256AETI144-7N pinout is provided in the Altera MAX 7000A datasheet, starting with the 144-pin TQFP package drawing and the signal-name table for pins 1 through 144. According to the datasheet, dedicated pins are TDI, TMS, TCK, TDO, GND, VCCINT, and VCCIO; the remaining 36 pins are user I/Os assigned through Quartus II fitter output.
Is EPM7256AETI144-7N pin-compatible with EPM7256AETI144-7?
Yes, the EPM7256AETI144-7N is pin-compatible with the EPM7256AETI144-7 (same 144-pin TQFP, same 256-macrocell die) - the only differences are the speed grade and operating-temperature suffix in the part number. According to FindIC parametric data, both parts share identical terminal assignments and packaging, allowing PCB-level substitution without redesign.

Guia de seleção

Choose the EPM7256AETI144-7N when maintaining a legacy MAX 7000A design with existing Quartus II compiled netlists, or when the application requires 5V-tolerant I/O to interface with legacy 5V peripherals - capabilities that the MAX V family does not offer. For new designs, evaluate the Lattice LC4256V-75T144E first (active production, same footprint, 256 macrocells, 7.5 ns tPD, 168 MHz fCNT) - it is the recommended migration path. Choose the EPM7256AETI144-7 if you need a same-die alternative with slightly different speed-grade sourcing flexibility. Avoid the EPM7256AEFC256-5N for new layouts unless the finer FBGA pitch is mandatory, since BGA rework drives up manufacturing cost significantly.

Notas de projeto

Estimated: the EPM7256AETI144-7N draws approximately 50-100 mA quiescent current from VCCINT (3.3V) when fully utilized, plus I/O switching current proportional to edge rate and load. Place a 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor within 5 mm of every VCCINT and VCCIO pin, with bulk 10-47 µF tantalum or ceramic capacitors on each supply rail. For mixed-voltage designs, tie VCCIO1 to 5V and VCCIO2 to 3.3V only after confirming the Quartus II fitter assigns signals to the correct I/O bank.

Estimated: a 144-pin TQFP routing escape requires 2 inner layers dedicated to ground and power planes. Use 50 Ω controlled-impedance traces for clock and JTAG signals, and keep TCK trace length under 50 mm to avoid JTAG boundary-scan failures. Place series-termination resistors (33 Ω) on high-frequency outputs driving long traces to reduce ground-bounce on simultaneous-switching outputs.

Do not confuse the EPM7256AETI144-7N with the EPM7256AETC144-7N (commercial temperature grade) when sourcing - the part number suffix -7N designates industrial temperature, while -7 alone with C-grade prefix may be commercial. Always verify against the Altera (Intel) ordering code before placing a production order. Also confirm the JTAG chain includes proper pull-ups on TMS and TDI per IEEE 1149.1, or in-system programming will fail intermittently.
