Product details
Overview
ATF1502AS-15AI44 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 and supports PCI-compliant 5V I/O in industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
For engineers reviewing the ATF1502AS-15AI44 datasheet, ATF1502AS-15AI44 pinout, ATF1502AS-15AI44 application, or ATF1502AS-15AI44 equivalent, key selection considerations include JTAG ISP capability, programmable slew rate and open-collector outputs, global clock routing with ITD circuits, power-down mode via PD1/PD2 pins, and security fuse protection for design IP.
Technical Context
The ATF1502AS-15AI44 implements a flexible macrocell architecture with five functional sections: product term array with PTMUX, OR/XOR/CASCADE logic, D/T-latch-configurable flip-flop, output select/enable, and logic array inputs. Each macrocell supports buried combinatorial or registered feedback independent of output mode.
Its global bus carries all 32 macrocell feedbacks plus all I/O and dedicated input signals; each logic block's switch matrix selects up to 40 signals from this bus. Four regional foldback buses enable high-fan-in sum-term generation (up to 9 product terms per region) with minimal delay.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Macrocells | 32 - provides gate count equivalent to ~1000 usable PLD gates with full interconnect flexibility |
| Product Terms | 5 per macrocell, expandable to 40 via cascade - enables complex Boolean functions without external glue logic |
| Max Pin-to-pin Delay | 7.5 ns - guarantees timing closure for 125 MHz registered operation in critical paths |

| 17 | GCLR/I | Global asynchronous clear - resets all registers synchronously or asynchronously depending on macrocell configuration |
| 16 | OE1/I | Output enable control - globally enables/disables outputs; configurable per-macrocell via product terms |
| 5, 32 | PD1/I/O, PD2/I/O | Power-down control - asserts low-power mode (<1 mA ICC) when driven high; disables logic but preserves output states |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCR3064XL-10VQ44C | 64 macrocells, 3.3V core, 10 ns tPD, Xilinx CoolRunner-II architecture with advanced low-power modes | Requires level-shifting for 5V PCI bus; lacks native 5V-tolerant I/O and ITD circuits | Select when lower static power (<10 µA standby) and 3.3V system integration are prioritized over 5V compatibility |
| ISPLSI2064VE-100LT44 | 64 macrocells, 3.3V supply, 100 MHz fMAX, Lattice ispLSI architecture with embedded RAM blocks | No PCI compliance; no pin-controlled power-down; requires external pull-ups for unused I/Os | Choose for designs needing embedded memory or higher logic density, accepting trade-offs in 5V I/O and power management granularity |
Compared with XCR3064XL-10VQ44C and ISPLSI2064VE-100LT44, the ATF1502AS-15AI44 uniquely combines native 5V PCI compliance, industrial-grade temperature support, pin-keeper circuitry eliminating external resistors, and hardware ITD for event-driven low-power operation - making it optimal for retrofitting legacy 5V systems and ruggedized industrial control.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the ATF1502AS-15AI44?
The ATF1502AS-15AI44 supports registered operation up to 125 MHz under industrial conditions (–40°C to +85°C) with 5V supply. Its maximum clock frequency is 166.7 MHz in commercial grade, but the -15 speed grade guarantees 125 MHz timing closure with 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay. The actual achievable frequency depends on logic depth and routing; fCNT = 125 MHz is specified for global clock paths with full macrocell utilization in the ATF1502AS-15AI44.
Does the ATF1502AS-15AI44 support JTAG boundary-scan testing?
Yes, the ATF1502AS-15AI44 fully supports IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 and 1149.1a-1993 boundary-scan testing. Every I/O and input pin includes a dedicated boundary-scan cell (BSC), and the device implements all five standard JTAG modes: SAMPLE/PRELOAD, EXTEST, BYPASS, IDCODE, and HIGHZ. The TAP controller resets automatically at power-up, eliminating need for TRST pin - a feature confirmed in the ATF1502AS-15AI44 datasheet revision 0995J.
Can the ATF1502AS-15AI44 be used in PCI-compliant designs?
Yes, the ATF1502AS-15AI44 is explicitly PCI-compliant per PCI Local Bus Specification 2.2. It meets all required DC characteristics including VOH ≥ 2.4 V at –2 mA, VOL ≤ 0.55 V at 3 mA, and AC drive capability of –44 mA (high-side) and +95 mA (low-side) with controlled slew rates. These specifications are validated for the ATF1502AS-15AI44 in its 44-lead TQFP package under industrial temperature conditions.
What power management features does the ATF1502AS-15AI44 offer?
The ATF1502AS-15AI44 offers three layered power management features: automatic 10 µA standby (not applicable to "AS" version - only "ASL"), pin-controlled power-down mode (<1 mA ICC via PD1/PD2), and per-macrocell reduced-power bit. In power-down mode, all outputs and internal states are latched; during reduced-power mode, tRPA adder (10–15 ns) applies to timing paths. These features are documented for the ATF1502AS-15AI44 in the "Speed/Power Management" section of its datasheet.
How many product terms are available per macrocell in the ATF1502AS-15AI44?
The ATF1502AS-15AI44 provides 5 base product terms per macrocell, expandable up to 40 via cascade logic from neighboring macrocells in the same logic block. This expansion is implemented in hardware with negligible additional delay (tPEXP = 0.8–2 ns), enabling high-fan-in sum-of-products without performance penalty. The compiler automatically allocates product terms using the PTMUX, and this capability is confirmed for the ATF1502AS-15AI44 in its macrocell architecture description.
