Compared with random logic circuits, memory-type circuits are more suitable for LSI realization since their iterated structure of identical cells results in higher transistor density and higher yield.

A high performance CMOS Programmable Logic Array (PLA) circuit implemented by a new circuit technique is presented. The gate outputs are preconditioned to minimize delay using a new clocking scheme ...

TI’s programmable logic devices reduce board space, cut costs, and simplify hardware design with no coding required, making integration seamless.

A hierarchy of function arrays, the MSA is integrated with multilevel bus interconnects on an underlying programmable RAM base. The base specifies the arrays' connections and logic configurations ...

A modular array ASIC is a mask-programmed custom integrated circuit, created by mapping a logic design into an array of identical building-block logic primitives (modules) that comprise the basic ...

Configurable analog ICs have been available in various forms for years, seemingly making less of an impression on the market than their digital cousins, FPGAs (field-programmable gate arrays). The ...

Background FPGAs were an outgrowth of the programmable array logic (PAL) business in the late 1970s. These devices enabled design engineers to replace discrete logic chips with one programmable chip.

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 ...

Advanced logic design techniques using field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices, programmable array logic devices, and other forms of reconfigurable logic. Architectural ...
