EPM9560RC208-18 Visão geral
A CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) is a programmable logic IC built from an array of macrocells and a programmable interconnect matrix, sitting between simple PAL/GAL devices and full FPGAs in the programmable logic hierarchy. MAX 9000 devices use EEPROM-based configuration, so they retain their logic configuration without an external configuration PROM, unlike SRAM-based FPGAs.
Key features of the EPM9560RC208-18 include 560 macrocells, 12,000 usable gates, up to 149 user I/O pins, 5 V core and I/O operation, and a maximum operating frequency of approximately 117.6 MHz for the -15 speed grade family. The -18 suffix denotes an 18 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, making it the mid-speed grade of the EPM9560RC208 family.
The MAX 9000 architecture uses a CMOS EEPROM process with a global clock network, programmable interconnect array, and per-macrocell flip-flops, giving deterministic timing that is critical for legacy bus-interface and glue-logic replacement designs. Because timing is fixed and non-volatile, the device powers up in a known state within microseconds.
Typical applications include legacy industrial control boards, telecom line-card glue logic, military/aerospace retrofit designs, test equipment, and replacement of discrete 74-series logic. The 208-pin RQFP package is form, fit and functionally equivalent to the discontinued 208-pin CQFP package per Altera's product discontinuance notice.
When designing with this device, note that it is a mature/EOL part: verify availability, plan for last-time-buy, and consider whether a modern CPLD or small FPGA is a better long-term path. The 5 V I/O is directly compatible with legacy TTL logic, which is a key reason the part remains in demand.

Aplicações típicas
EPM9560RC208-18 é adequado para 6 aplicaçãos: Legacy Industrial Control Boards, Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic, Military and Aerospace Retrofit Designs, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Legacy Bus Interface and Protocol Bridging, Discrete 74-Series Logic Replacement.
Legacy Industrial Control Boards
The EPM9560RC208-18 fits legacy industrial control boards because its 5 V supply and 3.3 V/5 V I/O compatibility interface directly with mature TTL and CMOS logic without level shifters. Its 560 macrocells and 149 user I/O lines absorb bus-interface, address-decoding, and glue-logic functions that would otherwise require dozens of discrete 74-series packages. Because MAX 9000 configuration is EEPROM-based and non-volatile, the device powers up in a known logic state within microseconds, which is essential for industrial controllers that must not glitch at power-on. The 18 ns pin-to-pin delay provides deterministic timing for state machines and handshake logic. A trade-off is that the part is EOL, so designers should plan a last-time-buy or migrate to a modern CPLD for new builds.
Recomendado
Telecom Line-Card Glue Logic
The EPM9560RC208-18 suits telecom line-card glue logic because its 12,000 usable gates and 772 flip-flops implement bus arbitration, clock-domain handshakes, and register files between legacy ASICs and backplane interfaces. The 5 V operation matches older telecom backplane signaling, and the 149 I/O lines allow wide parallel buses without external multiplexing. EEPROM non-volatility means the card initializes deterministically after a hot-swap or power cycle, avoiding the configuration-load delay of SRAM-based FPGAs. The 18 ns propagation delay supports bus cycles in the tens-of-megahertz range, adequate for legacy TDM and control-plane traffic. The main consideration is that the device is EOL, so spare-card production depends on residual distributor stock and should be validated for date-code consistency.
Recomendado
Military and Aerospace Retrofit Designs
The EPM9560RC208-18 is used in military and aerospace retrofit programs because the 208-pin RQFP package is form, fit and functionally equivalent to the discontinued 208-pin CQFP package, per Altera's product discontinuance notice. This equivalence lets existing qualified assemblies accept the RQFP part without mechanical redesign. The 5 V EEPROM-based architecture provides non-volatile, radiation-tolerant-by-heritage logic that many legacy avionics and ground-support systems already qualify. Its 560 macrocells and 149 I/O lines replace obsolete discrete logic in retrofit line-replaceable units. Because the device is EOL, procurement must rely on authorized aftermarket channels with traceable date codes, and any substitution should be re-qualified against the original timing budget.
Recomendado
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
The EPM9560RC208-18 fits test and measurement instrumentation where deterministic, non-volatile logic controls acquisition sequencing, trigger routing, and front-panel interfaces. The 18 ns pin-to-pin delay and 117.6 MHz family operating frequency support fast trigger and counter logic, while 772 flip-flops implement state machines and event counters. The 5 V I/O interfaces directly with legacy analog front-end control lines and GPIB-era digital buses. EEPROM configuration means the instrument boots into a known state without a configuration PROM, simplifying service and calibration. A design consideration is that the EOL status complicates long-term serviceability, so instruments should stock spare devices or plan a controller-board redesign using a modern CPLD with equivalent logic capacity.
Recomendado
Legacy Bus Interface and Protocol Bridging
The EPM9560RC208-18 bridges legacy parallel buses such as ISA, VME, and custom backplanes because its 149 user I/O lines and 560 macrocells implement address decoding, wait-state generation, and protocol translation in a single device. The 5 V supply and 3.3 V/5 V I/O compatibility eliminate level-shifting glue, and the 18 ns propagation delay keeps bus-cycle timing within legacy specifications. Non-volatile EEPROM configuration ensures the bridge comes up in a defined state after power loss, which is important for industrial and embedded systems that cannot tolerate a configuration reload. The trade-off is that the EOL lifecycle forces designers to validate aftermarket stock and consider a modern bridge CPLD for future revisions.
Recomendado
Discrete 74-Series Logic Replacement
The EPM9560RC208-18 replaces boards full of discrete 74-series logic by integrating 12,000 usable gates and 560 macrocells into one 208-pin RQFP device. This consolidation reduces board area, power, and component count while improving reliability through fewer solder joints. The 5 V operation matches classic TTL levels, and the 18 ns propagation delay is comparable to fast 74-series families, so existing timing budgets often close without redesign. EEPROM non-volatility removes the need for a configuration PROM, unlike SRAM FPGAs. Because the part is EOL, this replacement strategy is best for sustaining existing products; new designs should evaluate a modern low-power CPLD with equivalent macrocell count and 3.3 V or lower I/O.

Notas de projeto
The EPM9560RC208-18 is EOL, so the biggest design risk is supply continuity, not electrical performance. Before committing a production build, confirm distributor stock, date codes, and authenticity, and plan a last-time-buy quantity that covers the product's remaining service life. Because the 208-pin RQFP is form, fit and functionally equivalent to the discontinued 208-pin CQFP per Altera's product discontinuance notice, existing CQFP-based assemblies can accept the RQFP part without mechanical redesign, but any substitution should be re-validated against the original timing budget.
The EPM9560RC208-18 operates from a 5 V supply with 3.3 V or 5 V I/O compatibility. Decouple each VCC pin with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor placed as close to the pin as possible, and add a bulk 10 uF capacitor per device to absorb switching transients. Because MAX 9000 devices are EEPROM-based and non-volatile, no external configuration PROM is required, which simplifies the power-up sequence. Estimated: at 5 V and typical CPLD switching activity, verify the total supply current against the datasheet ICC versus frequency curve before finalizing the regulator sizing.
Route the 208-pin RQFP with a solid ground plane directly under the device and keep high-speed I/O traces short and matched where bus timing is tight. The 18 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay is deterministic, so timing closure depends mainly on trace delay and load capacitance rather than on internal routing. Place series termination resistors on long I/O nets that drive legacy backplanes to reduce reflections. Because the part is EOL, document the exact speed grade and date code used in each assembly so future substitutions can be traced and re-qualified.
