Large-scale optical programmable logic array can execute complex models like Conway’s Game of Life, marking a significant advancement in optical computing Researchers have long sought to harness the ...

For well over a generations of digital designers, programmable logic has been a key charm in their bag of tricks. The ability to procedurally and systematically replace what otherwise would be ...

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 ...

Demonstration and application of large-scale optical programmable logic array. (a) Nine-input PLA realized by combining wavelength and spatial dimensions. (b) Statement machine to infer the date ...

Programmable logic has been in the design toolbox since the early 1970s. Over the years, it has become a vital part of design. It had a humble beginning, back when programmable array logic (PAL) ...

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 ...

Programmable logic has come a long way from the simple devices we started out with. Remember Programmable Array Logic, or PALs? In bipolar technology the ICC on even a small PAL was over 100mA, and ...

This Design Idea describes a simple alternative to a nonvolatile gating function you typically implement using PAL (programmable-array logic), GAL (gate-array logic), or a CPLD ...

Yeah I am still a little pissed that the competition is still around and we aren’t, and by “we” I mean Commodore Business Machines (CBM). It was Commodore that had the most popular home computer ever ...

How do they get a complete logic analyzer in that tiny package? The advent of programmable logic devices (PLDs) started discrete-logic ICs on the road to extinction years ago. The expansion of PLDs to ...
