That EPROMs, EEPROMs and kin can be used as programmable logic should probably not come as a major surprise, but [Jimmy] has created a Lisp-based project that makes using these chips as a logic ...

They also can have a steep learning curve. Cheap Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) are plentiful, but can have intricate power requirements.

In its third major and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) announcement in the last 12 months, Lattice Semiconductor Corp. has introduced MachXO, a new product family that combines the key features ...

CPLD has the architectural features of both PAL and FPGA but is less complex than FPGA. More in CPLD Vs FPGA vs Microcontrollers comparison.. Ever since Xilinx introduced to the word ...

The CPLD CPLDs (complex programmable logic devices) were the next evolutionary step. These tended to be register-oriented, and sometimes even contained “buried” registers – ones not directly ...

Indirect and direct air/contact discharge test has been conducted on the ALS-SDA-CPLD/FPGA trainer kit linked to the digital to analog converter (DAC) module. The Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

This tutorial surveys commercially available, high-capacity field-programmable devices. The authors describe the three main categories of FPDs: simple and complex programmable logic devices, and field ...

The expansion of PLDs to complex PLDs (CPLDs) hastened the trend, and the recent development of low-cost, fast, and very large field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) has nearly completed the process.
