TIBPAL16L8-12MFKB

Overview

The TIBPAL16L8-12MFKB is a high-performance IMPACT-X PAL circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features an 8-input, 8-output architecture with a maximum propagation delay of 12 ns and a minimum frequency of 56 MHz without feedback. The device utilizes Advanced Low-Power Schottky technology and titanium-tungsten fuses for reliable operation. It operates within the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is housed in a 20-pin ceramic chip carrier (FK package).

Feature Summary

• High-speed logic with 12 ns max propagation delay and 56 MHz min frequency.
• Military-grade reliability characterized from -55°C to 125°C.
• Includes security fuse to prevent logical duplication.
• Compatible with standard PLD programming tools.

Applications

• Replacement for conventional TTL logic in high-speed digital systems.
• Custom function design requiring compact board space reduction.
• Military and aerospace electronic applications.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'FKB' against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm pinout and package dimensions. Confirm that the component meets all necessary environmental certifications for the intended deployment environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 12 ns speed grade is required for military temperature ranges (-55°C to 125°C). Ensure the application requires the specific 8I/8O configuration of the L8 variant rather than registered outputs found in R-series devices.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TIBPAL16L8 series of IMPACT-X PAL circuits. It serves as a functional equivalent but faster alternative to existing 20-pin PLDs. The 'M' suffix denotes the military temperature rating, while 'FK' indicates the ceramic chip carrier package type.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other TIBPAL16L8 variants with matching speed grades and packages, such as TIBPAL16L8-12MFK or TIBPAL16L8-10C if temperature requirements allow.
