EPM7256SQC208-15

General Description

The MAX 7000 family of high-density, high-performance PLDs is based on Altera’s second-generation MAX architecture. Fabricated with advanced CMOS technology, the EEPROM-based MAX 7000 family provides 600 to 5,000 usable gates, ISP, pin-to-pin delays as fast as 5 ns, and counter speeds of up to 175.4 MHz.

Features...

â–  High-performance, EEPROM-based programmable logic devices
(PLDs) based on second-generation MAX® architecture
â–  5.0-V in-system programmability (ISP) through the built-in
IEEE Std. 1149.1 Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) interface available in
MAX 7000S devices
– ISP circuitry compatible with IEEE Std. 1532
â–  Includes 5.0-V MAX 7000 devices and 5.0-V ISP-based MAX 7000S
devices
â–  Built-in JTAG boundary-scan test (BST) circuitry in MAX 7000S
devices with 128 or more macrocells
â–  Complete EPLD family with logic densities ranging from 600 to
5,000 usable gates (see Tables 1 and 2)
â–  5-ns pin-to-pin logic delays with up to 175.4-MHz counter
frequencies (including interconnect)
