Zero Power, Small Form Factor, and Low Cost
Manage power effectively, save PCB real estate, and design feature-packed, battery-powered applications with MAX IIZ CPLDs:
- Low power consumption—as low as 25 µA. With the industry’s lowest dynamic and static power consumption, MAX IIZ devices can meet the needs of the most demanding battery or low-power applications.
- Ultra-small, easy-to-use 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. MAX IIZ CPLDs help you deliver feature-rich portable products at competitive prices.
