The XC9572 is a high-performance CPLD providing advanced in-system programming and test capabilities for general purpose logic integration. It is comprised of eight 36V18 Function Blocks, providing 1,600 usable gates with propagation delays of 7.5 ns. See Figure 2 for the architecture overview. Power Management Power dissipation can be reduced in the XC9572 by configuring macrocells to standard or low-power modes of operation. Unused macrocells are turned off to minimize power dissipation. Operating current for each design can be approximated for specific operating conditions using the following equation: ICC (mA) = MCHP (1.7) + MCLP (0.9) + MC (0.006 mA/MHz) f Where: MCHP = Macrocells in high-performance mode MCLP = Macrocells in low-power mode MC = Total number of macrocells used f = Clock frequency (MHz) Figure 1 shows a typical calculation for the XC9572 device.
