Detailed Description

EPM240F100C5G is a MAX II family CPLD from Altera (Intel). It is a non-volatile, instant-on, low-power programmable logic device designed for control, glue logic, interface bridging, and power management tasks. Density class: EPM240. Package: FineLine BGA, 100-ball (F100). Speed grade: 5. Temperature grade: Commercial. Lead-free, RoHS-compliant “G” suffix. Category: Integrated Circuits (ICs), Specialized ICs. Available quantity: 2356 units. Date code: 21+

Key Features

Non-volatile flash-based CPLD with instant-on behavior

Low static and dynamic power for always-on control logic

In-system programming via IEEE 1149.1 JTAG

Multiple I/O voltage support (typical VCCIO options include 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V)

Core supply typically 1.8 V for MAX II family

Supports common interfaces and I/O standards used in embedded and industrial designs

Boundary-scan test capability for manufacturing and field diagnostics

Compact 100-ball FineLine BGA package for tight layout and high pin count in small area

Commercial operating temperature range suitable for many consumer and industrial uses

Key Advantages

Instant-on enables fast system startup and reliable sequencing without external configuration memory

Flash architecture retains configuration without power, simplifying design and reducing BOM

Low power reduces heat and extends system reliability

Flexible I/O voltage banks help bridge different logic levels between subsystems

Simple, fast updates over JTAG reduce service time and support rapid prototyping

Proven MAX II ecosystem with mature tools and abundant application notes

Packaging

Type: FineLine BGA (FBGA), 100-ball (F100)

Material: Lead-free, RoHS-compliant; epoxy molding compound and BT substrate typical for FineLine BGA

Size: Compact footprint; ball array in a 10 x 10 grid. For exact body dimensions and ball pitch, refer to the datasheet and package drawing

Pin configuration: 100 balls with multiple I/O banks, dedicated power/ground pins, JTAG pins, and configuration/control pins. Ball map and bank assignments are defined in the datasheet

Thermal characteristics: Thermal performance depends on PCB design, airflow, and copper area. Use the datasheet’s package thermal guidelines and your board’s thermal analysis for precise junction-to-ambient values

Electrical properties: Typical MAX II core supply VCCINT 1.8 V; I/O banks support several standards at 1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V. Timing, max frequency, and power figures vary by design utilization and speed grade; see datasheet for exact numbers

Lifecycle

Status: Mature, widely used, and generally orderable. Not publicly announced as discontinued at the time of writing

Successor families: Intel MAX V and MAX 10 are recommended next-generation options for new designs

Equivalent or alternative models (verify pinout, timing, and voltage before substituting):

- Same family, similar package/speed options: EPM240F100C4G (faster speed grade), EPM240F100C5N (variant suffix), EPM570F100C5G (higher density in same package class)

- Same density in different package: EPM240T100C5N (TQFP-100 option)

- Next-generation alternative: 5M240Z series (MAX V), e.g., 5M240ZT100C5N (check functionality and migration notes)
