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 array ...
The guys over at hackshed have been busy. [Carl] is making programmable logic design easy with an 8 part CPLD tutorial. (March 2018: Link dead. Try the Wayback Machine.) Programmable logic devices are ...
The field programmable gate array has always been a different sort of animal in the semiconductor market. While it has evolved from just a bunch of logic gates that can emulate other hardware and ...
Before long, platform FPGAs containing fixed or configurable processors and custom hardware will dominate the field of hardware design. By then, hardware/software codesign will be the norm. Fifteen ...
The PAL family continued to evolve into the late 1980s, with faster, lower-power devices, including ones that could be reprogrammed. The most complex device type developed was probably the PAL22V10, ...
ASIC designers can obtain programmable logic's reconfigurability. Adaptive Silicon's RAM-based reprogrammable logic IP for ASICs, the MSA2500, has up to 25,000 ASIC gates for flexible designs. Typical ...
Editor’s Note: This “How it Was” story is told by Aubrey Kagan, who is a professional engineer with a BSEE from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology and an MBA from the University of the ...
