GAL16V8D-10LJNI

Programmable Logic Device Pld Overview

The GAL16V8D-10LJNI is a discontinued Simple Programmable Logic Device (SPLD) from Lattice Semiconductor, utilizing high-performance E2CMOS technology. It features an architecture of 16 inputs and 8 outputs within a 20-pin Lead-Free PLCC package. The device specifies a maximum propagation delay of 10 ns and supports a maximum operating frequency of 83.3 MHz under no-feedback conditions. Electrical characteristics include a typical supply current of 55 mA at Vcc = 5V. The component incorporates Electrically Erasable floating gate technology allowing for reprogrammability with over 100 erase/write cycles.

• State Machine Control
• High Speed Graphics Processing
• Standard Logic Speed Upgrade

Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

This component has been officially discontinued by Lattice Semiconductor per Product Change Notification PCN#13-10. Availability is restricted to existing inventory or third-party surplus markets. Verification of the specific ordering suffix 'JN' confirms lead-free packaging compliance, but functional equivalence must be validated against legacy design requirements due to the end-of-life status.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Selection requires compatibility with 5V logic levels and a 20-pin PLCC footprint. Designers should account for the 10 ns propagation delay in timing-critical paths. The device supports three global OLMC configurations; software compilers typically handle mode selection automatically based on register usage. Ensure programming equipment supports the E2CMOS architecture for field reconfiguration.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

The GAL16V8D series represents a generation of Generic Array Logic devices designed to emulate various PAL architectures with full parametric compatibility. The 'D' variant denotes the use of E2CMOS technology, distinguishing it from earlier fuse-based GAL16V8C devices. This family was widely used for standard logic replacement before the prevalence of modern CPLDs.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available as the entire GAL16V8 product line has been discontinued. Designers must evaluate modern SPLD or low-density FPGA alternatives that match the pin count and I/O configuration.
