Microchip has introduced a 32 logic elements programmable logic array into a microcontroller. Each logic element can simulate AND, OR, NAND or NOR gate, a buffer or inverting buffer, a D or JK ...

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 ...

Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) perform the function of a custom LSI circuit. They are essentially gate arrays, but are user-programmable and even reprogrammable within the system. Unlike PALs, ...

Back in the bad old days, if you needed a little bit of custom logic you would whip out a tiny chip known as a PAL. A Programmable Logic Array is just what it sounds like and is the forerunner of ...
