ATF16LV8C-10PI

Overview

The ATF16LV8C-10PI is a high-performance Electrically Erasable Programmable Logic Device (EE PLD) manufactured by Microchip Technology, utilizing Atmel's Flash memory technology. It features an industry-standard architecture emulating 20-pin PALs, with eight outputs each allocated eight product terms. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3.0V to 5.5V and supports industrial temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical parameters include a maximum pin-to-pin delay of 10 ns, typical standby current of 100 nA, and a maximum power-down mode current of 5 µA. It is housed in a 20-lead Plastic Dual Inline Package (PDIP).

Feature Summary

• High-speed performance with a maximum 10 ns pin-to-pin delay.
• Ultra-low power consumption featuring 100 nA typical standby current and a 5 µA max pin-controlled power-down mode.
• CMOS and TTL compatible inputs and outputs with I/O pin-keeper circuits eliminating internal pull-up resistors.
• Advanced Flash technology providing reprogrammability, 100% testing, 20-year data retention, and 100 erase/write cycles.

Applications

• Direct replacement for the 16R8 family and most 20-pin combinatorial PLDs.
• Implementation of highly complex logic functions using three configurable modes of operation.
• Systems requiring low-power state machine initialization with guaranteed high output on power-up.

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering code matches the required package type, as the ATF16LV8C series includes multiple variants such as PLCC, SOIC, and TSSOP. Confirm the speed grade suffix corresponds to the desired timing characteristics. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements if applicable, noting that green package options are available for this series.

Selection Notes

Select the ATF16LV8C-10PI when an industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and a 10 ns maximum propagation delay are required. This model is suitable for designs needing direct compatibility with standard 20-pin PAL architectures. Consider the PDIP package only if through-hole mounting is necessary; surface mount alternatives like SOIC or TSSOP are available for different board layouts.

Part Context

The ATF16LV8C belongs to the 16V8 series of EE PLDs. It incorporates a superset of generic architectures to allow direct replacement of legacy 20-pin programmable logic devices. The device utilizes electrically-erasable Flash memory, distinguishing it from older EPROM-based PLDs by allowing in-system reprogramming without UV exposure.
