Product details
Overview
XC9536XL-10CS48I from AMD is a 36-macrocell CPLD in a 48-pin CSOP package, featuring 10 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, 5 V tolerant I/Os, and in-system programmability via JTAG. It serves as a glue-logic replacement in legacy industrial control backplanes.
For engineers reviewing the XC9536XL-10CS48I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include propagation delay budget, I/O voltage tolerance, JTAG configuration support, macrocell count for logic density, and CSOP thermal profile in convection-cooled enclosures.
Technical Context
The XC9536XL-10CS48I implements a classic two-level PAL architecture with 36 macrocells distributed across two function blocks, each supporting sum-of-products logic and registered outputs. It uses EEPROM-based nonvolatile configuration storage with 10,000 program/erase cycles.
JTAG boundary-scan testing per IEEE 1149.1 is fully supported, and in-system programming requires only VCC, GND, TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO signals-no external VPP voltage needed.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Macrocell Count | 36 macrocells provide sufficient combinatorial and registered logic for small-state machines or bus interface translation. |
| Propagation Delay | 10 ns max ensures timing closure in 50 MHz synchronous control paths with moderate fanout. |
| I/O Voltage Range | 5 V tolerant inputs accept TTL/CMOS levels without level shifters in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Configuration Memory | EEPROM-based nonvolatile storage retains logic design after power cycle-no external config PROM required. |
| JTAG Support | Full IEEE 1149.1 compliance enables boundary-scan testing and in-system programming without device removal. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C industrial grade rating supports deployment in uncontrolled cabinet environments. |
Pinout & Package
XC9536XL-10CS48I is housed in a 48-pin Ceramic Side-Brazed Outline Package (CSOP) with 0.025" lead pitch, designed for high-reliability, thermally stable mounting in aerospace and industrial control applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO | JTAG Test Access Port | Enable boundary-scan test and in-system programming without requiring device removal or special voltage rails. |
| GCK1–GCK2 | Global Clock Inputs | Dedicated low-skew clock inputs drive all macrocell registers synchronously across both function blocks. |
| OE1–OE2 | Output Enable Controls | Asynchronous enable/disable of I/O pins per function block-supports dynamic bus contention avoidance. |
| VCCINT | Core Logic Supply | 3.3 V supply powers internal logic; decoupling required within 0.5 inch of pin for noise immunity. |
| VCCIO | I/O Power Supply | 5 V supply sets output drive strength and input threshold-enables direct interfacing with legacy 5 V peripherals. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 10 ns pin-to-pin delay | Enables reliable operation in 50 MHz control loops with setup/hold margins intact under worst-case temperature and voltage. |
| 5 V tolerant I/Os | Eliminates need for external level translators when interfacing with legacy 5 V microcontrollers or ASICs. |
| In-system programmability | Allows field firmware updates and logic revisions without socket removal or rework-reduces maintenance downtime. |
| Two function blocks | Provides modular logic partitioning-each block operates independently with dedicated clocks and OE controls. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Backplane Interface | Legacy Bus Protocol Translation |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Interfacing modern 3.3 V FPGA-based motion controllers with aging 5 V RS-485 fieldbus modules in factory automation cabinets. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Glue logic translator handling address decoding, strobe synchronization, and direction control for half-duplex transceivers. Use Value: Eliminates discrete gate arrays and reduces BOM count by consolidating 12+ SSI logic functions into one device with deterministic 10 ns timing. | Use Scenario: Converting ISA-bus timing signals (IOW, IOR, AEN) to match custom ASIC memory-mapped peripheral timing in retro-computing restoration projects. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: State-machine sequencer generating precise strobe windows and chip-select delays aligned to 8 MHz ISA clock domain. Use Value: Replaces obsolete 74-series PALs with EEPROM retention-preserves configuration across power cycles without battery backup. |
| Aerospace Avionics I/O Conditioning | Test Equipment Signal Routing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPLD-based logic replacement applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCR3032XL-10VQ44I | 32 macrocells, 44-pin VQFP, 3.3 V core, no 5 V I/O tolerance | Suitable for new 3.3 V-only designs with tighter board space constraints | Select if migrating from through-hole to surface-mount and abandoning 5 V legacy interfaces |
| LC4032ZE-7TN48C | 32 macrocells, 48-pin TQFP, 1.8 V core, 3.3 V I/O, no JTAG boundary-scan | Targets ultra-low-power portable instrumentation where thermal envelope limits CSOP use | Choose only when system-level power budget prohibits 3.3 V core + 5 V I/O dual-rail operation |
Compared with XC9536XL-10CS48I, the XCR3032XL-10VQ44I trades 5 V I/O compatibility and ceramic reliability for smaller footprint and lower cost, while LC4032ZE-7TN48C sacrifices JTAG testability and industrial temperature range to achieve sub-10 mW static power-making it unsuitable for field-upgradable or mission-critical deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency supported by the XC9536XL-10CS48I?
The XC9536XL-10CS48I guarantees 10 ns pin-to-pin propagation delay, enabling reliable operation in synchronous logic paths up to 50 MHz under worst-case industrial temperature and voltage conditions. Actual system frequency depends on logic depth, fanout, and PCB routing-designers should perform static timing analysis using Xilinx WebPACK or ISE tools with the specific XC9536XL-10CS48I speed file.
Does the XC9536XL-10CS48I require an external configuration PROM?
No, the XC9536XL-10CS48I does not require an external configuration PROM. Its on-chip EEPROM stores the programmed logic configuration nonvolatily, retaining the design across power cycles. This eliminates boot-time configuration delays and external component dependencies-critical for fail-safe industrial control applications where the XC9536XL-10CS48I is deployed.
Can the XC9536XL-10CS48I be reprogrammed in the field without removing it from the PCB?
Yes, the XC9536XL-10CS48I supports full in-system programming (ISP) via its IEEE 1149.1 JTAG port. Reprogramming requires only VCC, GND, and the four JTAG signals-no external VPP voltage or socket access is needed. This capability makes the XC9536XL-10CS48I ideal for field upgrades and logic debugging in deployed industrial or avionics systems.
What is the purpose of separate VCCINT and VCCIO supplies on the XC9536XL-10CS48I?
The XC9536XL-10CS48I uses separate VCCINT (3.3 V) and VCCIO (5 V) supplies to isolate core logic voltage from I/O interface voltage. This allows the device to run low-power 3.3 V internal logic while maintaining 5 V-compatible I/O signaling-enabling seamless integration with legacy 5 V peripherals without level shifters. Proper decoupling of both rails is mandatory per the XC9536XL-10CS48I datasheet layout guidelines.
Is the XC9536XL-10CS48I RoHS compliant?
The XC9536XL-10CS48I is not RoHS compliant. It is manufactured with leaded solder terminations and contains lead in the ceramic CSOP package construction, meeting MIL-STD-883 Class B requirements for high-reliability applications. For RoHS-compliant alternatives, consult the XCR3000 series or contact Aetrix Electronics for qualified drop-in replacements with equivalent timing and I/O behavior.
