Blurring that line slightly is gate array logic (GAL). These devices were a preceursor to the FPGA, with a much simpler structure, and usually in those days UV-erasable in the same manner as an EPROM.

The 8721 PLA, or programmable logic array, was one of the chips that had to be invented to make the Commodore 128, the last of the 8-bit computers that formed the leading edge of the early PC ...

Abstract: We developed a novel configurable logic array test structure using a highly scalable 3 rd generation split-gate flash memory cell that features low power and fast configuration time. This ...

programmable array logic elektor may 1985 It is well known that programmable ROMs (read-only memories) can be used not only as a logic building brick, but also as a Boolean operator or complex encoder ...

This optical PLA leverages parallel spectrum modulation to achieve an 8-input system, greatly enhancing the scope of optical logic operations. Demonstration and application of large-scale optical ...

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 simplified series of ...

Californian startup Adaptive Silicon has publicly unveiled the design that the company will use to bring its own form of programmable logic to ASICs. In a break from traditional programmable-logic ...
