Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

This component is officially listed as obsolete or discontinued by the manufacturer. Verification of availability should focus on third-party distributors or surplus stock providers. Ensure that any sourced units are verified for authenticity and storage history due to the end-of-life status. Cross-reference part numbers carefully to confirm pin compatibility and electrical specifications before procurement.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Select this device when replacing legacy GAL26V12 designs requiring electrically erasable reprogrammability. Consider the 20 ns speed grade and 28-pin PLCC form factor for board layout compatibility. Evaluate alternative EE PLDs if new production is required, as this specific part number is no longer in active manufacturing. Verify voltage levels and I/O configurations against system requirements.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

The GAL26V12C-20LJI belongs to the GAL26V12 series of simple programmable logic devices. It represents a generation of CMOS-based PLDs designed to replace complex discrete logic gates. The 'C' suffix typically denotes commercial temperature range variants, while 'LJI' indicates the leaded PLCC package type.
