Additional Details
The EPM7096LI68-15 consists of 96 macrocells arranged in logic array blocks (LABs). The ‘LI’ in the part number signifies low voltage operation, and the ‘68’ denotes the number of pins in the PLCC (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier) package. The ‘-15’ indicates a speed grade, with lower numbers representing faster performance. These CPLDs are typically programmed using Altera's Quartus II software. CPLDs are often used in prototyping and low-volume production runs due to their flexibility and quick turnaround time.
Consult the official Intel (formerly Altera) datasheet for the EPM7096LI68-15 for detailed specifications, timing diagrams, and programming information. The datasheet is essential for understanding the device's capabilities and ensuring proper implementation in your design.
