Minimize Power, Space, and Cost in Portable Applications

Balance requirements for low power consumption, small packages and low cost with MAX  IIZ CPLDs.

  • Low power consumption—as low as 29 µA, for the industry’s lowest dynamic and static power consumption. MAX IIZ CPLDs meet the needs of the most demanding low-power applications by offloading common system tasks from power-hungry ASSPs.
  • Ultra-small packages—as small as 5 mm x 5 mm. MAX IIZ CPLDs provide up to 6X the density and 3X the I/O resources in the same package sizes as traditional macrocell-based CPLDs. This means you can pack greater functionality into a smaller PCB space.
  • Greater logic integration at a lower price. Cost-effective MAX IIZ CPLDs will help you deliver feature rich portable products at competitive prices.
  • Greater density and I/O allows MAX IIZ CPLDs to operate as low-power coprocessors that offload system tasks from big power-hungry host processors.
