Product details
Overview
ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a high-density, electrically-erasable Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) with 128 macrocells, 3.0–3.6 V operation, and 15 ns maximum pin-to-pin delay. It supports registered operation up to 77 MHz, features three global clock inputs, and is packaged in an 84-lead PLCC for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) applications including legacy system logic replacement and board-level glue logic.
For engineers reviewing the ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 datasheet, ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 pinout, ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 application, or ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, JTAG ISP capability, power-down control via PD1/PD2 pins, and confirmed PLCC-84 package mapping - all validated against Microchip's official ATF1508ASV(L) Rev. 1408H datasheet.
Technical Context
The ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 implements a hierarchical CPLD architecture with eight logic chains, each supporting up to 40-product-term sum logic via cascade routing. Its macrocell structure integrates five product terms per cell, configurable D/T/latch flip-flops, and programmable output slew rate and open-collector mode.
It features IEEE 1149.1-compliant JTAG boundary-scan, fast in-system programmability (ISP), PCI compliance, and dual power-down control (PD1/PD2). The device includes input transition detection (ITD) on global clocks and I/Os, programmable pin-keeper circuits, and VCC power-up reset with selectable hysteresis - all operating within its industrial-grade 3.3 V supply range.

Pinout & Package
ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 is housed in an 84-lead plastic leaded chip carrier (PLCC) package with J-lead configuration. Pin 1 is marked by a notch on the top-left corner; leads are numbered counter-clockwise starting from pin 1.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | INPUT/GCLR | Global asynchronous clear - resets all registers synchronously when asserted |
| 2 | INPUT/OE2/GCLK2 | Multi-function pin: global clock 2, output enable 2, or general input - selected at compile time |
| 12, 45 | I/O/PD1, I/O/PD2 | Power-down control inputs - drive high to enter sub-5 mA standby; disables logic but holds outputs |
| 14 | I/O/TDI | JTAG Test Data In - serial input for BSDL scan chain and ISP programming |

| 81 | I/O/GCLK3 | Third global clock input - supports multi-clock domain designs with independent timing paths |
| 83, 84 | INPUT/GCLK1, INPUT/OE1 | Dedicated global clock 1 and output enable 1 - decoupled from I/O bank constraints |
| GND (7,19,32,42,47,59,72,82) | Ground | Eight distributed ground pins - reduce switching noise and improve signal integrity in high-speed PLD logic |
| VCC (3,13,26,38,43,53,66,78) | Supply | Eight VCCIO pins - provide localized power delivery to I/O banks, minimizing IR drop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable pin-keeper | Prevents floating inputs/I/Os without external pull-ups - eliminates DC leakage and system noise in unconnected states |
| Individual macrocell power control | Reduces ICC by disabling unused logic blocks - lowers total system power in partial-utilization designs |
| Three global clock inputs | Enables independent clock domains for state machines, data paths, and control logic - avoids internal clock skew |
| Input transition detection (ITD) | Detects edges on GCLKs, inputs, and I/Os - supports glitch-free asynchronous event capture without external circuitry |
| Security fuse | Blocks unauthorized readback of fuse pattern while preserving User Signature access - protects IP in deployed systems |
| VCC power-up reset | Guarantees known register state at power-on - eliminates metastability in boot-critical state machines |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPLD applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATF1508ASV-20JI84 | Lacks automatic 5 µA standby; uses standard 115 mA ICC1 standby current instead of "L"-version ultra-low power | Suitable for commercial-temp (0°C to 70°C) applications where power budget permits higher quiescent draw | Select only if industrial temperature range is not required and lower-cost non-L variant suffices |
| XC95144XL-10TQ100C | Xilinx CoolRunner-II device: 144 macrocells, 10 ns speed, TQFP-100 package, 2.7–3.6 V operation | Better suited for new designs needing higher density and lower static power; lacks PD1/PD2 pin-controlled power-down | Choose when migrating from legacy Atmel CPLDs to newer architecture with longer lifecycle support |
Compared with ATF1508ASVL-20JI84, the ATF1508ASV-20JI84 trades ultra-low standby power for broader commercial availability, while the XC95144XL-10TQ100C offers higher macrocell count and modern low-power process - but requires PCB redesign due to different pinout and voltage tolerance.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for ATF1508ASVL-20JI84?
The ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This is confirmed by the "L" suffix designation and explicitly stated in the DC Operating Conditions table of the Microchip ATF1508ASV(L) Rev. 1408H datasheet. The PLCC-84 package provides thermal stability under sustained industrial ambient conditions, making ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 suitable for factory automation and outdoor equipment deployments.
Does ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes, ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 supports full IEEE 1149.1-compliant in-system programming via its dedicated TDI, TMS, TCK, and TDO pins. ISP allows field firmware updates without device removal, and the ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 ships pre-erased and ready for programming. The JTAG interface also enables boundary-scan testing, and the security fuse can be programmed to prevent unauthorized readback of the ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 configuration.
What are the power-down capabilities of ATF1508ASVL-20JI84?
ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 features two dedicated power-down pins (PD1 and PD2) that reduce supply current to below 5 mA when driven high. During power-down, all internal logic states and registered outputs remain latched and valid, and pin-keeper circuits prevent floating I/Os. This capability is enabled in the design source file and is fully documented in the Power-down Mode section of the ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 datasheet.
How many global clock inputs does ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 have?
ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 has three dedicated global clock inputs: GCLK1 (pin 83), GCLK2 (pin 2), and GCLK3 (pin 81). These pins are hardwired to the global routing network and support low-skew distribution to all 128 macrocells. Their presence enables multi-clock domain architectures - for example, separating control logic, data path, and interface timing - without consuming general-purpose I/O resources.
Is ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 RoHS compliant?
Yes, ATF1508ASVL-20JI84 is RoHS compliant and offered in green (Pb/Halide-free) packaging per Microchip's official documentation. The "L" suffix confirms industrial-grade qualification, and the PLCC-84 package meets JEDEC standards for lead-free assembly compatibility. Compliance is verified in the "Green (Pb/Halide-free/RoHS Compliant) Package Options" feature list of the ATF1508ASV(L) datasheet.
