PALCE20V8H-7JC/5

SPLD PAL Family 400Gates 8 Macro Cells 125MHz 5V 28Pin PLCC

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.

Device logic is automatically configured according to the user’s design specification. A design is implemented using any of a number of popular design software packages, allowing automatic creation of a programming file based on Boolean or state equations. Design software also verifies the design and can provide test vectors for the finished device. Programming can be accomplished on standard PAL device programmers.
