Planned EOL for MAX V CPLDs
Howdy,
I am designing the 2nd version of one of our GPS RF Front-Ends that utilized the CoolRunner II XC2C64A CPLD, which is now EOL and Obsolete. We are considering replacing it with an Altera/Intel MAX V 5M80ZT100I5N CPLD. This is the final prototype before we anticipate mass-producing our front-end for at least 10 years.
What is the planned EOL and part status for the 5M80ZT100I5N.
I called Intel support and they directed me to post here, Case Number: 06446480

Hi,
MAX V EOL has been asked repeatedly. Latest statement is 2035

Intel has presently no other low complexity logic devices in portfolio. For MAX V with 570 or even 240 and more LE, I would shift to MAX 10 series for a redesign. Lifetime beyond 2035 depends on future product portfolio and customer demand.Regards
Frank
