Product details
Overview
XC9572XL-5VQG44C from AMD (acquired by Xilinx) is a high-performance CPLD featuring 72 macrocells, 5 ns propagation delay, 80 I/O pins, and in-system programmability via JTAG. It serves as a logic replacement for discrete TTL/CMOS in industrial control sequencers requiring deterministic timing and reconfigurable glue logic.
For engineers reviewing the XC9572XL-5VQG44C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include propagation delay budget, I/O voltage compatibility (3.3 V), macrocell count for state machine depth, and JTAG-based field reprogrammability without device removal.
Technical Context
The XC9572XL-5VQG44C implements a multi-level PAL architecture with four function blocks, each containing 18 macrocells with configurable product-term sharing and buried registers. Its global clock, output enable, and set/reset controls support synchronous design across all macrocells.
It operates at 3.3 V supply with 5 ns tPD (max), supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan testing, and uses FastCONNECT switch matrix for low-skew interconnect between function blocks and I/O pins.
