EPM240M100C4N - 192 Macrocell MAX II CPLD, 100-MBGA | Intel / Altera
MPN: EPM240M100C4N ✓ Hoạt độngEPM240M100C4N Tóm tắt
A Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) is a non-volatile, instant-on digital IC that combines multiple PAL-like logic blocks with a programmable interconnect fabric. Compared with discrete 74-series glue logic, a CPLD consolidates timing-critical decode, bus-interface, and state-machine functions into a single re-programmable device, eliminating board area and improving revision flexibility. Within the broader programmable-logic taxonomy, the MAX II family occupies the low-power, non-volatile segment between small FPGAs and discrete ASICs, making it ideal for glue-logic, power-up sequencing, and I/O expansion roles.
Key features include 192 macrocells (equivalent to ~240 logic elements), 80 user I/Os, an internal 8 Kbit user flash memory block, an IEEE 1149.1 JTAG interface, and an operating temperature range of -40 C to +125 C (industrial). The device supports hot-socketing and multi-voltage I/O banks, allowing mixed 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V interfacing on a single die. Compared with the larger EPM570 and EPM2210 MAX II devices, the EPM240 strikes a balance between logic capacity and unit cost.
Architecturally, the EPM240 uses a 0.18 um, six-layer-metal flash process with non-volatile configuration storage, removing the need for an external boot PROM. The logic array is organized as four Logic Array Blocks (LABs), each containing 16 macrocells. The MultiTrack interconnect provides fast, deterministic routing across the device, while the I/O elements (IOEs) include programmable pull-up resistors, slew-rate control, and bus-hold circuitry.
Typical applications include I/O expansion and voltage-level translation between processors and peripherals, power-up sequencing for multi-rail systems, bus decoding in embedded designs, LED and segment-display multiplexing, and replacement of multiple discrete 74HC/74LVC logic packages. Designers also use the MAX II family as a low-cost configuration controller or watchdog supervisor in industrial control and consumer products.
When designing with this device, allocate JTAG pins (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) plus one unused I/O as a `DEV_OE`/`DEV_CLRn` path if in-system updates are required, and respect the 0.5 mm BGA pitch for PCB assembly (laser-drilled or chemically-etched vias on 1.0 mm pitch with 0.25 mm capture pad are typical).

Ứng dụng tiêu biểu
EPM240M100C4N phù hợp cho 6 Áp dụngs: Processor I/O Expansion & Voltage Translation, Power-Up Sequencing for Multi-Rail Systems, Glue Logic Consolidation (74-series Replacement), Bus Decoding & Chip-Select Generation, LED Display Multiplexing & Scanning, Industrial Control & Sensor Aggregation.
Processor I/O Expansion & Voltage Translation
The EPM240M100C4N excels at processor I/O expansion and voltage translation between MCUs / SoCs and lower-voltage peripherals. With 80 user I/Os supporting mixed 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V LVCMOS standards and 4.7 ns tPD worst-case propagation delay, the device can level-shift and decode address/data buses without timing bottlenecks. Place the CPLD between the 3.3 V processor bus and 1.8 V sensor bus to consolidate level shifters and decode logic into a single re-programmable device. Unlike small FPGAs, the MAX II instant-on non-volatile flash eliminates boot time, so peripherals are addressable immediately at power-up.

Power-Up Sequencing for Multi-Rail Systems
The EPM240M100C4N is widely used as a multi-rail power-up sequencer in servers, FPGAs, and SoC reference designs. Its 4.7 ns tPD enables deterministic delay chains with sub-100 ns accuracy across 8-12 independent rails, while the 80 user I/Os are sufficient for EN and PGOOD signals on typical 4-8 rail designs. Designers instantiate the CPLD with each rail mapped to a flip-flop output whose delay is set by a counter clocked from an internal oscillator. Compared with discrete 555-timer sequencing, the MAX II approach is re-programmable, lower BOM cost, and provides JTAG-visible state for in-system debug.

Glue Logic Consolidation (74-series Replacement)
Replacing 4-8 discrete 74HC / 74LVC / 74AHC packages with a single EPM240M100C4N reduces PCB area by up to 70% and improves design revision flexibility. The 192-macrocell capacity maps to roughly 60-100 discrete gates, while the 247.5 MHz internal fMAX supports fast bus multiplexing. Industrial temperature rating (-40 C to +125 C) allows deployment in factory automation enclosures without derating. Use the Quartus Prime design software with schematic capture or Verilog / VHDL to map existing discrete logic one-for-one, generating a JEDEC file for JTAG programming in the factory.

Bus Decoding & Chip-Select Generation
In embedded designs with multiple peripherals sharing a single processor bus, the EPM240M100C4N serves as a deterministic chip-select decoder. Its 4.7 ns tPD ensures address-to-CS latency fits within one memory-access cycle at 100 MHz, while 80 user I/Os support 16-24 peripheral CS lines plus interrupt aggregation. The non-volatile flash configuration makes the decoder immune to configuration corruption, unlike SRAM-based FPGAs that require external boot memory. Place the CPLD adjacent to the processor with address lines on adjacent LABs for shortest routing.
Được đề xuất
LED Display Multiplexing & Scanning
The EPM240M100C4N drives LED dot-matrix, 7-segment, and Charlieplexed displays with deterministic row/column scanning. Internal fMAX of 247.5 MHz enables sub-microsecond row switching for flicker-free multiplexing of 8-32 row displays, while 80 user I/Os can drive 8 rows x 16 columns without external drivers. The instant-on flash configuration means displays light up immediately on power-up without boot delay - critical for appliance and instrument front panels. Compared with microcontroller-based multiplexing, the CPLD approach offloads the MCU and provides nanosecond-accurate timing for high-brightness PWM dimming.
Được đề xuất
Industrial Control & Sensor Aggregation
In factory-automation and process-control systems, the EPM240M100C4N aggregates discrete sensor inputs, performs debouncing, and generates interrupt signals to the host controller. The -40 C to +125 C industrial temperature rating, combined with 247.5 MHz fMAX and 8 Kbit user flash for non-volatile configuration storage, makes it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Use the CPLD as a deterministic front-end between 16-32 proximity sensors, encoders, or limit switches and a real-time EtherCAT / Profinet controller. JTAG in-system programming supports field firmware updates without removing the board from service.

- 4.7 ns worst-case tPD for deterministic timing (vsEPM240GT100C5N (TQFP package variant))

Ghi chú thiết kế
The 100-ball MBGA package uses a 0.5 mm ball pitch on a 6 x 6 mm body; PCB land pads should be 0.30 mm diameter non-solder-mask-defined (NSMD) with 0.45 mm solder-mask opening. Vias on a 1.0 mm grid with 0.25 mm capture pad and 0.20 mm drill are typical. Route all VCCINT and VCCIO pins to power planes with 0.1 uF + 10 uF decoupling placed within 5 mm of each supply ball; JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) should be length-matched to within 25 mm to avoid programming failures.
Estimated: at maximum toggle rate (~247.5 MHz across 80 I/Os with 10 pF loads), the EPM240M100C4N core dissipates approximately 200-400 mW typical, 800 mW maximum. With the MBGA thermal pad theta_JA of approximately 35 C/W (on a 4-layer 1 oz PCB), this yields a junction-temperature rise of 7-28 C above ambient. For -40 C to +125 C industrial designs, place thermal vias under the center ball array to spread heat into inner copper layers, and avoid placing the CPLD adjacent to high-power switching converters (>2 W dissipation in the same airflow stream).
Do NOT confuse the M (MBGA) package with the T (TQFP-100) package when ordering; the EPM240M100C4N is the BGA variant and the EPM240T100C5N is the TQFP variant, and the two packages are NOT pin-compatible. Also, ensure the VCCINT supply is decoupled locally with at least one 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor per supply pin pair; missing decoupling causes JTAG programming failures at high toggle rates. Finally, respect the I/O bank voltage groupings - the EPM240M100C4N has multiple VCCIO banks that must each be tied to a valid voltage, and floating VCCIO pins prevent configuration.
Place the CPLD within 50 mm of the host processor to minimize trace-length-induced timing skew on clock and JTAG signals. Use a continuous ground plane under the BGA and avoid routing signals between the ball grid and inner power vias. For high-speed designs, dedicate one PCB layer to VCCINT/VCCIO power planes with stitching vias every 5 mm. Keep sensitive analog (ADC reference, sensor analog) traces at least 10 mm from the CPLD clock outputs to avoid coupling.
