A bit of history The first practical programmable logic chips, known as PLAs (programmable logic arrays), became available in the mid 1970s. Things really took off though when MMI introduced a ...

Advanced logic design techniques using field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices, programmable array logic devices, and other forms of reconfigurable logic. Architectural ...

For many designs, the advantages of using a single, programmable device that may include multiple processors, interfaces, and glue logic will make it the preferred choice over using today's discrete ...

A modular array ASIC is a mask-programmed custom integrated circuit, created by mapping a logic design into an array of identical building-block logic primitives (modules) that comprise the basic ...

FPOAs are highperformance, re-programmable integrated circuits based on proprietary Silicon Object™ technology. MathStar’s re-programmable Field Programmable Object Array can process logic functions ...

An integrated circuit (IC) known as a Field Programmable Gate Array, or FPGA, allows for the quick generation of bespoke logic for system design and rapid prototyping.

Canonical forms of switching functions. Switching function minimization using Karnaugh maps. Two-level and multi-level combinational circuits. Gate conversion. Decoders, encoders, multiplexers, and ...

Fortunately, key programmable-logic device (PLD) makers have stepped in to extend the advantages of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and PLDs to the analog world. This is better late than never.
