PALCE20V8-10PC

Programmable Logic Device Pld Overview

The PALCE20V8-10PC is a Flash Erasable, Reprogrammable CMOS PAL device manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor Corp. It belongs to the PALCE family of Electrically Erasable Programmable Logic Devices (EE PLD). The component features a propagation delay of 10 ns and operates with a nominal supply voltage of 5 V. It is housed in a 28-pin Plastic Dual In-line Package (PDIP) suitable for through-hole mounting. The device integrates 14 dedicated inputs and 8 I/O lines organized into macrocells, providing flexible logic implementation capabilities within a standard PAL architecture.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Feature Summary

• Flash Erasable and Reprogrammable CMOS technology allowing non-volatile storage without UV erasure
• 10 ns maximum propagation delay supporting clock frequencies up to 71.4 MHz
• 28-pin PDIP package with 14 dedicated inputs and 8 I/O lines
• Macrocell output structure for versatile logic function configuration

Programmable Logic Device Pld Applications

• Complex glue logic replacement in digital systems
• Address decoding and chip select generation
• State machine implementation for control logic
• Bus protocol conversion interfaces

Programmable Logic Device Pld Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PC' against official Cypress documentation to confirm package type and temperature range. Ensure compatibility with 5 V logic levels and check for any obsolescence notices from the manufacturer or current rights holders. Cross-reference pinouts with verified datasheets before PCB layout finalization.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Selection Notes

Select this component when a reprogrammable PAL solution with 14 inputs and 8 outputs is required. The 10 ns speed grade suits applications needing moderate switching speeds. Compare against the PALCE20V8-25JC if slower switching speeds are acceptable for cost reduction. Verify that the PDIP package fits the assembly constraints compared to surface-mount alternatives like PQCC.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Part Context

This part is part of the PALCE series of electrically erasable programmable logic devices. It serves as a drop-in replacement for older OTP PALs in many designs. Cypress Semiconductor Corp acquired the intellectual property from original PAL manufacturers, continuing production under the Cypress brand before its acquisition by Infineon Technologies.

Programmable Logic Device Pld Replacement Considerations

PALCE20V8-25JC offers identical logic functionality with a slower 25 ns speed grade. PALCE20V8Q-10JC/4 provides equivalent performance but utilizes a 28-pin PQCC plastic quad flat no-lead package instead of PDIP.
