PALCE16V8H-10JC/4

Programmable Logic Device Pld Overview

The PALCE16V8H-10JC/4 is a high-speed EE CMOS Programmable Array Logic (PAL) device manufactured by Lattice Semiconductor. It features 16 input lines and 8 registered outputs, providing 64 product terms for complex logic implementation. The '10' speed grade indicates a maximum propagation delay of 10 ns. The device utilizes Electrically Erasable CMOS technology, allowing for non-volatile configuration retention without power. It is housed in a 20-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQCC), suitable for surface-mount applications requiring compact footprints and high-density logic capabilities.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Feature Summary

• High-speed performance with 10 ns maximum propagation delay
• EE CMOS architecture offering electrically erasable reprogrammability
• 16 inputs and 8 registered outputs with 64 product terms
• Non-volatile data retention eliminating the need for battery backup

Programmable Logic Device Pld Applications

• High-performance digital control systems
• Address decoding and bus arbitration circuits
• State machine implementations in industrial equipment
• Replacement for obsolete bipolar PAL devices in legacy designs

Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as this part number has been produced by multiple entities including AMD and Vantis following industry acquisitions. Confirm the specific suffix '/4' corresponds to the required package variant and temperature range. Ensure compatibility with existing programming tools for EE CMOS devices before procurement.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Select this component when a registered output PAL is required with a 10 ns speed grade. Compare against the PALCE16V8-10JC if unregistered outputs are sufficient, or the PALCE16V8H-15JC if a slower 15 ns speed is acceptable for lower power consumption. Verify that the 20-pin PQCC footprint matches the PCB design constraints.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

This device belongs to the PALCE16V8 family of Universal Programmable Array Logic devices. It serves as a direct functional replacement for standard TTL-based PAL16R8 and PAL16V8 devices, offering improved speed and lower power consumption while maintaining pinout compatibility. The family is widely used in embedded systems requiring reliable, reconfigurable logic.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements include the PALCE16V8-10JC (unregistered outputs) and PALCE16V8H-15JC (slower speed). Cross-reference with AMD or Vantis datasheets if sourcing from alternative distributors to ensure electrical parameter equivalence.
