MAX 3000A EPM3256ATC144-10N vs MAX V 5M1270ZT144 (Size comparison) - MAX 3000A EPM3256ATC144-10N vs MAX V 5M1270ZT144 (Size comparison) Hello, Our hardware group is reimplementing an existing design. They decided to change some CPLDs from a MAX 3000A EPM3256ATC144-10N to a MAX V 5M1270ZT144. I am going to add a 16-bit pulse counter plus some other logic to the existing CPLD logic, so I am trying to ascertain how much bigger the MAX V is than the MAX 3000A part. I only have a images of the existing CPLD logic so I am not sure how much space the existing design uses. Here is what I know: MAX 3000A -------------- 16 LABs 16 LABs * 16 Macrocells/LABs = 256 Macrocells Macrocell has 5 input product terms and a clocked register MAX V -------- 127 LABs 127 LABs * 10 LE/LABs = 1270 LE LE has a 4 input LUT and a clocked register The MAX V seems to be significantly larger, especially given each LE has a LUT. am I correct? How much larger is it?

So 5M1270ZT144 is significantly larger than EPM3256ATC144-10N. Hope that answers your question.
