Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

This component is officially discontinued. No new units are manufactured or distributed by Lattice Semiconductor. Verification of availability should be restricted to existing stock held by third-party distributors. Sourcing requires careful inspection for authenticity due to the age of the product line.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Designers requiring active components should consider modern Lattice CPLDs such as the MachXO series or iCE40 FPGA families. These alternatives offer comparable logic density with updated manufacturing processes, improved reliability, and ongoing supply chain support.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

The GAL16LV8ZD-25QJ is part of the legacy GAL16V8 product line. Lattice issued Product Change Notifications (PCNs) discontinuing all devices in this datasheet. The 'QJ' suffix indicates a specific package and temperature grade variant within the discontinued family.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements are not guaranteed for modern equivalents. Potential functional substitutes include Lattice MachXO2 or MachXO3 series devices, though these require design adaptation and do not share identical pinouts or programming interfaces.
