PAL16L8A-2MFKB

Programmable Logic Device Pld Overview

The PAL16L8A-2MFKB is a military-grade Standard High-Speed PAL circuit from Texas Instruments, utilizing Advanced Low-Power Schottky technology. It features a Half-Power speed grade with a minimum operating frequency of 16 MHz and maximum propagation delay of 40 ns. The device operates over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Electrical characteristics include a supply voltage of 4.5 V to 5.5 V, high-level output current of -2 mA, and low-level output current of 12 mA.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Feature Summary

• Combines Advanced Low-Power Schottky technology with titanium-tungsten fuses for reliable performance.
• Offers half-power operation providing reduced power dissipation compared to standard devices.
• Available in ceramic packages including LCCC (FK) for compact board space reduction.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Applications

• High-performance logic replacement for conventional TTL circuits
• Military systems requiring extended temperature stability
• Custom function design with rapid prototyping capabilities

Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type, as the FK suffix denotes the Leadless Ceramic Chip Carrier variant. Confirm the device meets the Half-Power electrical specifications if lower power consumption is critical. Ensure compatibility with existing programming hardware and software algorithms provided by Texas Instruments for fuse configuration.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Select this component when a programmable logic solution requires operation across the full military temperature range while maintaining moderate switching speeds. The Half-Power designation indicates a balance between speed and power efficiency suitable for systems where thermal management is a constraint but high-frequency performance is not the primary requirement.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

This part belongs to the PAL16L8AM family of Standard High-Speed PAL Circuits. It shares the same logical architecture and pinout as the standard speed variants but is characterized specifically for the Half-Power performance tier. The device is manufactured by Texas Instruments and serves as a direct substitute for legacy PAL logic in industrial and defense applications.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

PAL16L8AMJ or PAL16L8AMWB may be considered if standard speed grades are acceptable instead of the Half-Power specification. Verify that the alternative package options align with the available footprint on the printed circuit board.
