Product details
Overview
ATF1504ASL-25AU44 from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a high-density, electrically-erasable Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) with 64 macrocells, 7.5 ns pin-to-pin delay, and support for 125 MHz registered operation. It features in-system programmability via IEEE 1149.1 JTAG, three global clock inputs, and operates at 3.3V or 5.0V I/O voltage. Used in legacy industrial control logic replacement and PCI-compliant interface glue logic.
For engineers reviewing the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 datasheet, ATF1504ASL-25AU44 pinout, ATF1504ASL-25AU44 application, or ATF1504ASL-25AU44 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 44-pin TQFP package, -25 speed grade (7.5 ns max tPD), L-version automatic µA standby power management, and JTAG boundary-scan compliance per IEEE 1149.1a-1993.
Technical Context
The ATF1504ASL-25AU44 implements a flexible macrocell architecture with five product terms per macrocell-expandable to 40 via cascade logic-and supports D/T/latch-configurable flip-flops with individual register control and output enable. Its global bus feeds all 64 macrocells and 68 possible I/O signals, enabling high-utilization routing.
It integrates three dedicated global clock pins (GCLK1–GCLK3), input transition detection (ITD) circuits on clocks/I/Os, and programmable pin-keeper circuits to prevent floating inputs. The device supports both combinatorial and registered outputs with buried feedback, and includes VCC power-up reset with selectable hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Density | 64 macrocells - provides gate count equivalent to ~1000–1500 usable gates for TTL/SSI/MSI replacement. |
| Max Pin-to-pin Delay | 7.5 ns (–25 speed grade) - enables reliable operation in 125 MHz registered logic paths. |
| Global Clock Frequency | 125 MHz max - supports high-speed synchronous control in industrial timing-critical applications. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0–3.6 V or 4.75–5.25 V I/O - dual-voltage compatibility simplifies integration with mixed 3.3V/5V systems. |
| Standby Current | 10 µA (automatic "L" mode) - eliminates need for external power gating in battery-backed or low-power monitoring systems. |
| JTAG Compliance | IEEE 1149.1-1990 & 1149.1a-1993 - enables standardized boundary-scan test and ISP without custom tooling. |
| PCI Compliance | Meets PCI electrical specifications - allows direct connection to PCI bus without external driver buffers. |
Pinout & Package
ATF1504ASL-25AU44 is packaged in a 44-lead Thin Quad Flat Package (TQFP), 10 mm × 10 mm, 0.8 mm pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or beveled corner; top view shown in datasheet Rev. 0950N–PLD–07/02.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 | I/O/TDI/TMS/TDO/TCK | Bi-directional logic I/O; four dedicated JTAG pins (TDI, TMS, TDO, TCK) for ISP and boundary-scan testing. |
| 12, 23, 35 | GND | Ground reference for core and I/O domains - three separate GND pins reduce ground bounce in high-speed switching. |
| 10, 16, 24, 36 | VCC | Power supply for I/O banks - four VCC pins ensure stable voltage delivery across 44-pin layout. |
| 44 | GCLK3/I/O | Third global clock input or general-purpose I/O - enables triple-clock domain synchronization in state machines. |
| 34 | GCLK2/OE2/I | Second global clock input or output enable signal - supports independent OE control per logic block. |
| 33 | GCLR/I | Global asynchronous clear input - resets all registers synchronously or asynchronously depending on configuration. |
| 32 | OE1/I | First output enable input - allows external control of output drivers for bus arbitration or tri-state control. |
| 31 | GCLK1/I | Primary global clock input - default clock source for register-based logic unless overridden by product-term clock. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable slew rate per output | Reduces EMI and crosstalk by allowing slow switching on non-critical outputs while preserving speed on timing-sensitive paths. |
| Pin-keeper circuit on all I/Os | Eliminates need for external pull-ups on unused inputs, reducing BOM cost and board space while preventing floating-induced shoot-through current. |
| Three independent global clock inputs | Enables multi-domain clocking - e.g., one clock for control logic, one for data path, one for status reporting - without internal routing congestion. |
| Security fuse + 16-bit User Signature | Protects intellectual property against unauthorized readback; User Signature stores revision/date/project ID accessible even when fuse is blown. |
| Automatic µA standby mode ("L" version) | Enters ultra-low-power state during logic inactivity - critical for always-on industrial sensors or watchdog controllers with intermittent activity. |
Applications

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-macrocell Xilinx CoolRunner-II; 10 ns tPD; 3.3V-only; no 5V I/O tolerance. | Lacks PCI compliance and 5V I/O support; requires level-shifting in mixed-voltage systems. | Choose for lower static power (µA range) and newer toolchain support; avoid if 5V interfacing or PCI bus attachment is required. |
| ISPLSI2064VE-100LT44 | Lattice ispLSI 2064VE; 64 macrocells; 100 MHz max; 3.3V core/5V-tolerant I/O; different pinout and JTAG BSDL. | Higher maximum frequency but larger package footprint (44-pin PLCC vs. TQFP); no automatic µA standby mode. | Prefer for higher clock-rate designs where layout space permits PLCC; verify JTAG chain compatibility before migration. |
Compared with XCR3064XL-10VQ44C and ISPLSI2064VE-100LT44, the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 uniquely combines 5V/3.3V I/O flexibility, PCI compliance, automatic µA standby, and identical 44-pin TQFP footprint - making it irreplaceable in legacy industrial upgrades requiring drop-in compatibility and mixed-voltage resilience.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the ATF1504ASL-25AU44?
The ATF1504ASL-25AU44 is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is confirmed in the DC Operating Conditions table of the official datasheet (Rev. 0950N–PLD–07/02), and applies specifically to the "L" suffix variant, which denotes the industrial-grade version of the ATF1504ASL-25AU44.
Does the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 support both 3.3V and 5.0V I/O operation?
Yes, the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 supports dual I/O voltage operation: 3.0–3.6 V or 4.75–5.25 V, as specified in the DC Characteristics table. This allows direct interfacing with both 3.3V microcontrollers and legacy 5V TTL/CMOS systems without level shifters - a key feature confirmed for the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 in its official datasheet.
What does the "-25" speed grade indicate for the ATF1504ASL-25AU44?
The "-25" suffix denotes the –25 speed grade, meaning the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 guarantees a maximum pin-to-pin propagation delay (tPD1) of 7.5 ns under specified conditions. This value is explicitly listed in the AC Characteristics table for the –25 column and defines the device's timing performance ceiling for combinational logic paths.
Can the JTAG pins on the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 be used as general-purpose I/Os?
Yes - the JTAG pins (TDI, TMS, TDO, TCK) on the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 can be reconfigured as user I/Os if JTAG boundary-scan or ISP functionality is disabled in the design file. This capability is documented in the "JTAG-BST/ISP Overview" section and confirmed as a programmable option for the ATF1504ASL-25AU44.
Is the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 PCI-compliant, and what does that mean for system design?
Yes, the ATF1504ASL-25AU44 meets PCI electrical specifications, including drive strength, skew, and voltage thresholds. This means it can directly drive PCI bus signals without external buffers - verified in the "PCI Compliance" section of the datasheet - simplifying board layout and ensuring interoperability in PCI-based industrial controllers.
