XC2C32A-6CP56I Datasheet/PDFEmbedded - CPLDs (Complex Programmable Logic Devices)
XC2C32A-6CP56I is a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), as part of the Embedded CPLD category. CPLDs are highly efficient in applications for which large amounts of logic functionality and/or memory capacity are needed. CPLDs are distinct from the slightly less complex SPLDs (Simple Programmable Logic Devices) in that it integrates several more powerful techniques for both logic function expansion and memory expansion.
Application Field
XC2C32A-6CP56I offers a broad range of application areas. In particular, it is frequently used in industrial control systems, automotive systems, military and aviation systems, medical devices and in telecommunications. They are also suitable for any applications requiring quick time-to-market. The device combines reliable, low-power consumption and features such as pin locking, hot socketing, field programming, while keeping up with the latest technologies. All in all, it is a great choice for businesses seeking reliable, long-term solutions.
Working Principle
The XC2C32A-6CP56I is a member of the XC2C family of CPLDs for which the embedded programmable logic is organized as programmable logic blocks (PLBs), implemented as standard cells. The logic blocks are connected together by an inter-PLB interconnect network, which consists of internal routing paths. In addition to the embedded logic, this device enables logic expansion through integrated look-up tables. It is equipped with asynchronous clear, paralleled inputs, and programmable output initialization. Components are independently tested to meet their functional and performance specifications.
As for programming the XC2C32A-6CP56I, this is done through a secured multi-tiered process, which allows for easy task updates. The programming includes features such as pin locking and hot socketing, eliminating the need to solder devices or perform board redesign during programming. The self-timed response logic guarantees that the device meets the required data timing, even with varying VCC conditions. A power-on-reset (POR) and 4-input synchronous clear signal allow for fast start-up.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the XC2C32A-6CP56I is a feature-rich CPLD device that is especially well-suited for embedded applications. The device offers quick time-to-market, as well as reliable, low-power consumption features. It has a broad range of application areas such as industrial control systems, automotive systems, military and aviation systems, medical devices, and telecommunications, and programming is done through a secure multi-tiered process. This CPLD offers all the features necessary for the success of numerous applications.
