Product details
Overview
ATF1502AS-15AC44 from Atmel is a high-performance, electrically-erasable Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) with 32 macrocells, 5 product terms per macrocell (expandable to 40), 44-pin TQFP package, 7.5 ns maximum pin-to-pin delay, and registered operation up to 125 MHz. It integrates legacy TTL/SSI/MSI logic in industrial control, PCI interface bridging, and embedded state-machine applications.
For engineers reviewing the ATF1502AS-15AC44 datasheet, ATF1502AS-15AC44 pinout, ATF1502AS-15AC44 application, or ATF1502AS-15AC44 equivalent, key selection criteria include its JTAG-based in-system programmability, PCI-compliant 5V I/O drive capability, global clock architecture with three dedicated GCLK pins, and power-down mode controlled via PD1/PD2 pins.
Technical Context
The ATF1502AS-15AC44 implements a hierarchical routing architecture with a global bus feeding all 32 macrocells and a regional foldback bus enabling up to nine-product-term sum terms per region. Each macrocell supports combinatorial or registered outputs with buried feedback, D/T latch configurable flip-flops, and programmable output slew rate or open-collector mode.
It features IEEE 1149.1-compliant JTAG boundary-scan testing, programmable pin-keeper inputs/I/Os, VCC power-up reset with selectable hysteresis, and security fuse protection. The device supports both standard and reduced-power macrocell modes, with automatic 10 µA standby for "L" variants - though ATF1502AS-15AC44 is the standard-speed "AS" version rated for commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPLD applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCR3064XL-10VQ44C | 64 macrocells, 3.3 V core, 10 ns tPD, CoolRunner-II architecture with lower static current | Requires level-shifting for 5V PCI bus; better suited for low-power portable instrumentation | Select when migrating to 3.3 V systems and requiring higher density; not pin-compatible with ATF1502AS-15AC44 |
| EPM3064ATC44-10 | 64 macrocells, 5 V tolerant I/O, 10 ns tPD, MAX 3000A family with enhanced routing | Higher gate count but larger tPD margin; lacks built-in ITD and pin-keeper circuits | Prefer for new designs needing more logic resources and JTAG debug visibility; requires different fitter toolchain |
Compared with XCR3064XL-10VQ44C and EPM3064ATC44-10, the ATF1502AS-15AC44 delivers native 5V PCI compliance, integrated input transition detection, and pin-keeper functionality - making it uniquely suitable for retrofitting legacy 5V industrial controllers without voltage translation or external pull-ups.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for ATF1502AS-15AC44?
The ATF1502AS-15AC44 is specified for commercial temperature range: 0°C to +70°C ambient. It is not rated for industrial temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C), which applies only to the "L" variant (e.g., ATF1502ASL). This makes ATF1502AS-15AC44 ideal for office-environment test equipment and non-harsh industrial enclosures where thermal management is controlled.
Does ATF1502AS-15AC44 support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes, ATF1502AS-15AC44 supports full IEEE 1149.1-compliant in-system programming via its dedicated 4-pin JTAG interface (TDI, TDO, TCK, TMS). ISP allows reprogramming while soldered on the PCB, enabling design iterations, firmware updates, and field repairs without device removal - a critical capability for maintaining legacy systems using ATF1502AS-15AC44.
Can ATF1502AS-15AC44 drive PCI bus signals directly?
Yes, ATF1502AS-15AC44 is explicitly PCI-compliant: it guarantees VOH ≥2.4 V at –2 mA and VOL ≤0.55 V at 3–6 mA under 5V operation, with low output-to-output skew. Its programmable high-drive outputs meet PCI Local Bus Specification Rev 2.2 requirements - eliminating need for external bus transceivers when interfacing with standard PCI slots using ATF1502AS-15AC44.
How many global clock inputs does ATF1502AS-15AC44 provide?
ATF1502AS-15AC44 provides three dedicated global clock inputs: GCLK1, GCLK2, and GCLK3. Each supports Input Transition Detection (ITD) for asynchronous edge capture and can be individually assigned as clock sources, output enables, or general-purpose inputs - enabling multi-domain timing control essential in complex state machines implemented with ATF1502AS-15AC44.
Is the ATF1502AS-15AC44 pin-compatible with other ATF1502AS variants?
Yes, all ATF1502AS variants - including ATF1502AS-10, ATF1502AS-15, and ATF1502AS-20 - share identical 44-pin TQFP and PLCC footprints and pinouts. Speed grades differ only in internal timing parameters (e.g., tPD, fCNT); thus, ATF1502AS-15AC44 can be substituted for slower variants without layout change, though timing closure must be re-verified in the target design.
