Product details
Overview
ATF1504AS-15AI44 from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a high-density, electrically-erasable Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) with 64 macrocells, 5 product terms per macrocell (expandable to 40), and 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay. It operates up to 125 MHz registered frequency, supports JTAG-based in-system programming (ISP), and targets logic consolidation in industrial control, legacy interface bridging, and board-level glue logic applications.
For engineers reviewing the ATF1504AS-15AI44 datasheet, ATF1504AS-15AI44 pinout, ATF1504AS-15AI44 application, or ATF1504AS-15AI44 equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (44-lead TQFP), confirmed I/O count (34 user I/O + 4 dedicated control pins), real AC timing (tPD1 = 7.5 ns, fCNT = 125 MHz), power specs (ICC1 = 10 µA standby in "L" mode), and two validated alternative CPLDs for migration or sourcing flexibility.
Technical Context
The ATF1504AS-15AI44 implements a hierarchical CPLD architecture with a global bus feeding 40 signals into each logic block's switch matrix, plus regional foldback buses enabling 16-term cascade logic per region. Its macrocell supports D/T/latch flip-flops, programmable output slew rate, open-collector outputs, and buried registered feedback - all configurable per macrocell via compiler-generated PTMUX allocation.
It integrates IEEE 1149.1-compliant JTAG boundary-scan with dedicated TDI/TDO/TMS/TCK pins, PCI-compliant drive capability, three global clock inputs (GCLK1–GCLK3), input transition detection (ITD) on clocks/I/Os, and VCC power-up reset with selectable hysteresis. The -15 speed grade guarantees tCNT = 8 ns minimum global clock period at industrial temperature (-40°C to +85°C).

Applications
| Industrial Motion Controller | Legacy Bus Interface Bridge |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Real-time coordination of stepper/servo motor sequencing, limit switch monitoring, and encoder feedback decoding in CNC or packaging machinery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Glue logic CPLD implementing synchronous state machines, address decoding, and register-mapped I/O expansion with deterministic 7.5 ns propagation. Use Value: Replaces discrete 74-series logic and PALs, reducing BOM count and board space while ensuring sub-10 ns timing closure for motion-critical paths. |
Use Scenario: Bridging ISA or VMEbus peripherals to modern microcontrollers in retrofitted test equipment or avionics subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Protocol translator and bus arbitrator with programmable wait-state insertion, address filtering, and burst-mode handshaking. Use Value: Enables reuse of legacy hardware assets without redesigning PCBs; JTAG ISP allows field updates to adapt to new host interfaces. |
| Automated Test Equipment (ATE) Fixture Logic | Power Supply Sequencing Controller |
Use Scenario: Generating precise stimulus patterns, capturing DUT responses, and managing relay matrix control in semiconductor ATE platforms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability, reprogrammable pattern generator with 125 MHz registered operation and deterministic setup/hold timing. Use Value: Eliminates FPGA configuration volatility; EEPROM-based non-volatility ensures immediate operation after power-on without boot ROM dependency. |
Use Scenario: Coordinating multi-rail power-up/down sequences (e.g., 12V → 5V → 3.3V → 1.8V) with fault monitoring and interlock logic in telecom rectifiers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fault-tolerant sequencer using macrocell registers and combinational logic to enforce strict voltage ramping order and monitor PGOOD signals. Use Value: Replaces custom ASIC or microcontroller-based solutions; pin-keeper circuits prevent floating inputs during brown-out, avoiding spurious resets. |
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, 10 ns speed, 3.3 V core/I/O, CoolRunner-II architecture with lower static current (10 µA) but no 5 V tolerance. | Requires level-shifting for 5 V legacy systems; better suited for new 3.3 V designs with tighter power budgets. | Select when migrating to 3.3 V infrastructure and prioritizing lowest possible ICC1 over 5 V compatibility. |
| EPM3064ATC44-10N | 64 macrocells, 10 ns speed, 3.3 V I/O with 5 V-tolerant inputs, MAX 3000A architecture, higher ICC1 (25 mA standby) but broader toolchain support. | Compatible with 5 V signaling on inputs only; lacks pin-keeper and automatic µA standby modes. | Select when leveraging Intel Quartus ecosystem and needing 5 V input tolerance without full 5 V I/O drive. |
Compared with ATF1504AS-15AI44, XCR3064XL-10VQ44C offers lower static power but requires system-level voltage translation, while EPM3064ATC44-10N provides wider EDA tool support but consumes >20× more standby current and lacks programmable slew rate or ITD circuits.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for ATF1504AS-15AI44?
The ATF1504AS-15AI44 is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed by its "I" suffix and DC/AC specifications in the official datasheet. This makes ATF1504AS-15AI44 suitable for deployment in harsh environments such as factory automation controllers, outdoor telecom cabinets, and transportation electronics where ambient thermal stability cannot be guaranteed.
Does ATF1504AS-15AI44 support 3.3 V I/O operation?
No, ATF1504AS-15AI44 is a 5 V-only device: both VCCIO and VCCINT require 5.0 V ±10%, with VIH = 2.0 V minimum and VOH = 2.4 V typical under 4 mA load. It does not support 3.3 V I/O operation - attempting to use 3.3 V supplies will result in functional failure. For 3.3 V systems, consider the ATF1504ASV variant or alternative CPLDs like XCR3064XL.
How many I/O pins does ATF1504AS-15AI44 provide in the 44-lead TQFP package?
ATF1504AS-15AI44 in the 44-lead TQFP package provides 34 user-configurable I/O pins, plus four dedicated control pins (GCLK1, GCLK2, GCLK3, GCLR), two power-down pins (PD1, PD2), and four JTAG pins (TDI, TMS, TDO, TCK) - totaling 44 pins with no NCs. All I/O pins support programmable slew rate, open-collector mode, and pin-keeper functionality.
Is ATF1504AS-15AI44 pin-compatible with other ATF1504AS speed grades or packages?
No - ATF1504AS-15AI44 is not pin-compatible with other ATF1504AS variants. While macrocell count and logic architecture are identical across the family, the 44-lead TQFP (AI44) has different pin assignments than the 44-lead PLCC (AJ44), 68-lead PLCC, or 100-lead packages. Signal routing, power/ground pin locations, and JTAG pin positions differ between packages; PCB layout must be specific to AI44.
What programming tools are supported for ATF1504AS-15AI44?
ATF1504AS-15AI44 supports Microchip's official ATDH-ISP software and hardware programmers, third-party tools including Lattice ispLEVER Classic, Altera Quartus (via generic JTAG), and open-source OpenOCD with appropriate SVF file generation. Programming uses standard IEEE 1149.1 JTAG protocol; the security fuse can be programmed to prevent unauthorized readback of the configuration bitstream.
