PALCE20V8H-10PC/4

PAL 8MACROCELL 10ns 24-PDIP - PALCE20V8H-10PC/4

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PALCE20V8 is an advanced PAL device built with low-power, high-speed, electrically-erasable CMOS technology. Its macrocells provide a universal device architecture. The PALCE20V8 is fully compatible with the GAL20V8 and can directly replace PAL20R8 series devices and most 24-pin combinatorial PAL devices.
