Product details
Overview
ATF1502AS-15JC44 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 in-system programming via JTAG for field reconfiguration in industrial control and PCI-compliant interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the ATF1502AS-15JC44 datasheet, ATF1502AS-15JC44 pinout, ATF1502AS-15JC44 application, or ATF1502AS-15JC44 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 32-macrocell architecture, JTAG boundary-scan compliance (IEEE 1149.1a), PCI-compatible 5V I/O drive, programmable slew rate, and dual power-down modes - all validated for commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and 5V ±5% supply.
Technical Context
The ATF1502AS-15JC44 implements a global bus architecture feeding up to 40 signals into each logic block's switch matrix, enabling high routing flexibility and successful pin-locked design iterations. Its macrocell structure includes OR/XOR/cascade logic, configurable D/T-latch flip-flops, and buried feedback paths supporting combinatorial outputs with registered feedback within any macrocell.
It features three global clock pins with Input Transition Detection (ITD), programmable pin-keeper inputs/I/Os, VCC power-up reset with selectable hysteresis, and security fuse protection. JTAG ISP uses standard 4-pin interface (TDI/TDO/TCK/TMS), with optional pull-ups on TMS/TDI and boundary-scan cells on all I/O and input pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Macrocell Count | 32 macrocells - provides gate-equivalent density sufficient to replace multiple SSI/MSI TTL devices or classic PLDs in glue logic consolidation. |
| Product Terms per Macrocell | 5 base terms, expandable to 40 via cascade - enables high-fan-in sum-of-products logic without external fan-in expansion. |
| Pin-to-pin Delay | 7.5 ns (–15 speed grade) - guarantees timing closure for 125 MHz registered operation in synchronous designs. |
| Supply Voltage | 5V ±5% - compatible with legacy 5V TTL/PCI signaling; not rated for 3.3V operation. |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +70°C - commercial-grade qualification suitable for non-extended-environment embedded systems. |
| JTAG Compliance | IEEE Std. 1149.1-1990 and 1149.1a-1993 - enables standardized boundary-scan testing and in-system programming without device removal. |
| PCI Compatibility | Meets PCI DC/AC electrical specs (e.g., VOL ≤0.55V at 3 mA, VOH ≥2.4V at –2 mA) - allows direct interfacing with PCI bus without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
ATF1502AS-15JC44 is housed in a 44-lead Thin Quad Flat Package (TQFP), lead-free and RoHS-compliant per Atmel documentation. Pin assignments match the 44-pin TQFP top-view layout shown in Rev. 0995J–PLD–09/02.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4, 6–11, 13–22, 24–30, 32–43 | I/O bidirectional pin | Configurable as input, output, or tristate; supports programmable slew rate, open-collector option, and pin-keeper function. |
| 5, 12, 23, 31 | Dedicated input / Global control | May serve as GCLK1/GCLK2/GCLK3, GCLR, OE1, OE2, PD1, or PD2 - selected per macrocell control requirements. |
| 14, 27, 34, 44 | JTAG interface pins | TDI, TDO, TCK, TMS - used for ISP and boundary-scan; pull-up option available on TMS/TDI. |
| 16, 29, 40 | VCC | Main 5V supply pins - decoupling required at each; total VCC current up to 60 mA (std mode, com temp). |
| 7, 20, 35 | GND | Ground reference pins - must be connected to system ground plane for signal integrity and EMI control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| In-System Programmability (ISP) | Enables firmware updates and logic revisions without device removal using standard JTAG interface - reduces manufacturing and field service cost. |
| Programmable Pin-keeper | Prevents floating inputs/I/Os by latching last driven state - eliminates need for external pull-up resistors and associated DC power loss. |
| Three Global Clock Pins | Supports multi-clock domain designs; each can be assigned to individual macrocells or used as register clocks, resets, or output enables. |
| Reduced-power Macrocell Option | Per-macrocell power gating cuts ICC by up to 40% in standby - critical for thermally constrained or battery-backed systems. |
| Security Fuse | One-time programmable fuse blocks readback of configuration bitstream - protects IP in production units while preserving 16-bit User Signature access. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | PCI Bus Glue Logic |

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, 3.3V core, 10 ns tPD, CoolRunner-II architecture with lower static current (10 µA) | Requires level-shifting for 5V PCI interfaces; lacks native 5V-tolerant I/O and ITD circuits | Preferred for new low-power 3.3V designs; not suitable for direct 5V PCI bus connection without external buffers. |
| LC4064V-75T44C | 64 macrocells, 3.3V supply, 7.5 ns tPD, ispMACH 4000 family with enhanced routing and 1.8V I/O support | No PCI DC compliance; no built-in power-up reset hysteresis option; JTAG BSDL differs | Better for high-density, multi-voltage I/O systems; requires redesign if PCI electrical compliance is mandatory. |
Compared with XCR3064XL-10VQ44C and LC4064V-75T44C, the ATF1502AS-15JC44 uniquely delivers native 5V PCI-compliant I/O, integrated power-up reset hysteresis, and Input Transition Detection on global clocks - making it irreplaceable in legacy 5V industrial and PCI add-in card designs where voltage compatibility and deterministic startup are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for ATF1502AS-15JC44?
The ATF1502AS-15JC44 operates strictly at 5V ±5% (4.75V to 5.25V). It is not rated for 3.3V or mixed-voltage I/O operation. All DC and AC characteristics - including PCI compliance, VOL/VOH levels, and timing parameters - are specified only under this 5V supply condition. Using ATF1502AS-15JC44 outside this range may cause functional failure or reduced reliability.
Does ATF1502AS-15JC44 support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes, ATF1502AS-15JC44 supports full IEEE 1149.1a-compliant in-system programming via its dedicated 4-pin JTAG interface (TDI, TDO, TCK, TMS). Programming can be performed while soldered on the PCB using standard SVF files, eliminating the need for socketing or rework. The ATF1502AS-15JC44 also includes ISP protection that forces I/O into high-Z during interrupted programming.
What package type is used for ATF1502AS-15JC44?
ATF1502AS-15JC44 uses a 44-lead Thin Quad Flat Package (TQFP), as confirmed by the "JC44" suffix and top-view pinout diagrams in Atmel's Rev. 0995J–PLD–09/02 datasheet. This package is lead-free and RoHS-compliant, with 0.8 mm lead pitch and exposed pad thermal design compatible with standard reflow profiles.
How does the power-down mode work on ATF1502AS-15JC44?
ATF1502AS-15JC44 offers pin-controlled power-down: asserting PD1 or PD2 high reduces ICC to <1 mA while latching all internal states and outputs. During power-down, inputs (except PD pins) are blocked, but pin-keeper circuits maintain I/O levels. The ATF1502AS-15JC44 must be configured with the power-down option enabled in the design file; PD pins cannot serve as logic inputs when active.
Is ATF1502AS-15JC44 compliant with PCI electrical specifications?
Yes, ATF1502AS-15JC44 meets PCI 2.1 DC and AC electrical requirements, including VOL ≤0.55 V at 3 mA sink, VOH ≥2.4 V at –2 mA source, and output slew rates of 1–5 V/ns. Its 5V-tolerant I/O structure and low output-to-output skew enable direct connection to PCI bus lines without external drivers or level shifters - a key differentiator from later-generation 3.3V CPLDs.
