Product details
Overview
ATF750CL-15JU from Atmel is a low-power, electrically-erasable complex programmable logic device (CPLD) with 20 registered outputs, 171 product terms, and 20 sum terms. It features D- or T-type flip-flops, pin-keeper circuits, and 15 ns maximum pin-to-pin delay at 5V operation. Used in industrial control logic, legacy system upgrades, and power-sensitive embedded state machines.
For engineers reviewing the ATF750CL-15JU datasheet, ATF750CL-15JU pinout, ATF750CL-15JU application, or ATF750CL-15JU equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to 28-lead PLCC, confirmed I/O flexibility (10 bi-directional pins), and validated alternatives for CPLD migration paths.
Technical Context
The ATF750CL-15JU implements a high-density PLD architecture derived from the 22V10, extended with 42 array inputs, dual-clocking options (product-term or direct input pin), and independent asynchronous reset per flip-flop. Its logic array supports buried state machines via full internal feedback from all 20 flip-flops.
It uses Atmel's CMOS electrically-erasable technology with 100% factory testing, 20-year data retention, and 2000 erase/write cycles. The "L" variant achieves 1 mA standby current while maintaining 15 ns propagation delay - enabling battery-backed or thermally constrained industrial logic replacement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Propagation Delay (tPD) | 15 ns max - guarantees timing closure in 5V industrial control buses up to 41 MHz with external feedback. |
| Logic Density | 171 product terms / 20 sum terms - replaces >10 SSI/MSI TTL packages in glue logic consolidation. |
| Flip-flops | 20 individually configurable D- or T-type registers - enables mixed synchronous counters, JK emulations, and multi-clock domain state machines. |
| I/O Configuration | 12 dedicated inputs + 10 bi-directional I/Os - supports bus interface, address decoding, and peripheral control without external transceivers. |
| Power Consumption | 0.12–0.15 mA standby (industrial temp) - enables always-on logic in energy-harvested or battery-powered edge nodes. |
| Operating Range | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial automation, motor drives, and telecom line cards without derating. |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM - withstands handling and board-level ESD events in manufacturing and field service environments. |
Pinout & Package
ATF750CL-15JU is packaged in a 28-lead Plastic J-Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), compliant with JEDEC MS-018 AB. Pin 1 is marked by a corner notch; pins 1, 8, 15, and 22 may be left unconnected, though VCC on pin 1 and GND on pins 8/15/22 are recommended for optimal noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CLK/IN | Clock input or general logic input | Selectable as global clock source or standard input; enables pin-controlled flip-flop clocking without consuming product terms. |
| IN (pins 2–12, 23–24) | Dedicated input | 12 total dedicated inputs feed directly into logic array; no register feedback path required for combinatorial functions. |
| I/O (pins 13–22) | Bi-directional buffer | 10 pins support input, output, or bidirectional modes; each has individual OE product term and pin-keeper enable. |
| VCC (pin 1) | +5V supply | Primary power rail; decoupling near pin 1 improves high-speed switching stability and reduces ground bounce. |
| GND (pins 8, 15, 22) | Ground reference | Three GND pins provide low-inductance return paths for I/O and core logic; critical for signal integrity at 15 ns timing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable pin-keeper circuits | Eliminates need for external pull-ups on unused I/Os, reducing BOM count and DC leakage in floating-bus systems. |
| Dual clocking architecture | Each flip-flop selects between product-term or direct pin clock - enables mixed-clock-domain logic (e.g., UART + PWM) in one device. |
| Asynchronous reset per flip-flop | Independent reset control allows selective initialization of subsystems (e.g., clear counter but retain configuration latch). |
| Synchronous preset line | Single global preset signal loads all 20 registers simultaneously - simplifies power-up sequencing and test-mode entry. |
| Preload capability | Forces any register state via I/O pin voltage during 10.5V preload cycle - enables deterministic boundary-scan-like testing without JTAG. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Expansion | Legacy System Glue Logic Replacement |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPLD applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATF750C-15JU | Standard-power variant: 125–135 mA ICC standby (industrial); same 15 ns speed grade and PLCC-28 package. | Preferred where thermal headroom exists and higher drive strength (24 mA IOL) is needed for long traces or heavy loads. | Select when system power budget allows >100× higher standby current and stronger output drive is required. |
| ATF750CL-10JU | Faster speed grade: 10 ns tPD, 55 MHz fMAXS; otherwise identical low-power architecture and pinout. | Suitable for upgraded timing-critical paths (e.g., faster serial interfaces) without changing PCB layout or firmware. | Choose for performance uplift within same power envelope - requires re-verification of setup/hold timing in target design. |
Compared with ATF750C-15JU, the ATF750CL-15JU cuts standby current by 99.9% while matching 15 ns timing; versus ATF750CL-10JU, it trades 5 ns delay margin for lower dynamic power and broader voltage tolerance in marginal supply conditions.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the ATF750CL-15JU in a typical industrial design?
The ATF750CL-15JU achieves up to 41 MHz maximum operating frequency with external feedback (fMAX = 1/(tS + tCO)), based on its 15 ns propagation delay and 8 ns setup time. This is validated for -40°C to +85°C operation at 5V ±10%, making it suitable for real-time control loops in motor drives and sensor fusion nodes where deterministic timing is critical. The ATF750CL-15JU maintains this performance without thermal throttling under continuous industrial ambient conditions.
Does the ATF750CL-15JU support in-system programming (ISP)?
No, the ATF750CL-15JU does not support in-system programming. It requires a dedicated external programmer (e.g., Atmel-ICE or third-party JEDEC-compatible units) applying 10.5V to pin 8 during programming. Unlike flash-based CPLDs, its electrically-erasable EEPROM cells demand elevated voltage and controlled timing sequences - precluding ISP via standard I/O pins. The ATF750CL-15JU is programmed before soldering or via socketed programming stations.
How does the pin-keeper function work on the ATF750CL-15JU, and how is it enabled?
The pin-keeper circuit on the ATF750CL-15JU actively holds the last driven logic state (high or low) on any input or I/O pin when left floating, preventing undefined levels that cause shoot-through current or noise coupling. It is enabled during design compilation by selecting the "V750CPPK" device mnemonic in Atmel WinCUPL - which sets internal configuration bits. No external components or runtime commands are needed; the feature is hardware-configured at fuse-time.
Can the ATF750CL-15JU replace an ATV750BL in an existing design without changes?
Yes, the ATF750CL-15JU is backward compatible with the ATV750BL and can serve as a direct replacement in most cases. It shares identical pinout, JEDEC file structure (V750B mode), and logic architecture. However, users must recompile the design using Atmel WinCUPL with "ATF750C (V750B)" mode to disable T-type flip-flops and pin-clocking features - ensuring functional equivalence. The ATF750CL-15JU retains full compatibility while adding low-power operation.
What is the power-up reset behavior of the ATF750CL-15JU, and how does it affect system initialization?
The ATF750CL-15JU performs automatic power-up reset: all 20 flip-flops initialize to logic low when VCC crosses ~2.0–4.5 V (VRST), with reset duration of 600–1000 ns (tPR). This ensures deterministic state machine startup but requires monotonic VCC ramp-up and adherence to input setup times before clock activation. Failure to meet these conditions may result in metastability; the ATF750CL-15JU specification mandates stable clocks only after tPR expires.
