EPM240T100 CPLD Development Board (Altera MAX II) Key benefits — why you need this board Ready-made, reliable platform for CPLD development and system implementation. Speeds prototype and proof-of-concept work so you can validate logic designs quickly. Stable 5V operation provides a consistent power environment for deterministic behavior during development and testing. Onboard 50 MHz active crystal oscillator supplies an accurate clock source, reducing the need for external timing hardware and simplifying timing verification. Focused, practical tool for engineers and students who need a compact development target for MAX II-series CPLD designs. What it does and how it solves problems Hosts the EPM240T100 CPLD to implement glue logic, state machines, timing-critical control, and simple bus or interface bridging without the overhead of a full FPGA board. Eliminates supply and clock sourcing issues by providing on-board 5V power compatibility and a stable 50 MHz clock, so you can concentrate on design and functional validation. Provides a dependable testbed for iterative development — load designs, exercise I/O, verify timing, and adjust logic in real conditions. Standout features and performance EPM240T100 device compatibility: built around the Altera MAX II family’s CPLD capabilities for low-latency, non-volatile logic functions. Onboard 50 MHz active crystal oscillator for precise clocking and repeatable timing behavior. 5V supply operation ensures straightforward integration with common TTL-level systems and legacy hardware. Robust, development-focused platform intended to support rapid design cycles and system-level testing. Compatibility and practical attributes Designed for use with standard CPLD development workflows and MAX II device programming environments. Compact development board form factor suited for bench use, integration into test rigs, and enclosure mounting during prototyping. Durable PCB-based construction for repeated bench use and stable signal handling. Typical use scenarios Prototype glue logic and bus arbitration: Implement and validate combinational and sequential control between microcontrollers, sensors, and peripheral modules. Timing-critical control and state machines: Use the on-board 50 MHz clock to develop and verify state machines and deterministic control logic before system integration. Educational labs and design validation: Teach or learn CPLD design fundamentals and perform hands-on testing of logic synthesis, programming, and functional verification on a dedicated MAX II board.
