XCR5064C: 64 Macrocell CPLD with Enhanced Clocking
0 14*
DS044 (v1.1) February 10, 2000
Product Specification speed and zero power in a 64 macrocell CPLD. With the FZP design technique, the XCR5064C offers true pin-to-pin speeds of 7.5 ns, while simultaneously delivering power that is less than 100 µA at standby without the need for `turbo bits' or other power down schemes. By replacing conventional sense amplifier methods for implementing product terms (a technique that has been used in PLDs since the bipolar era) with a cascaded chain of pure CMOS gates, the dynamic power is also substantially lower than any competing CPLDz. These devices are the first TotalCMOS PLDs, as they use both a CMOS process technology and the patented full CMOS FZP design technique.
