That EPROMs, EEPROMs and kin can be used as programmable logic should probably not come as a major surprise, but [Jimmy] has created a Lisp-based project that makes using these chips as a logic array ...

Large-scale optical programmable logic array can execute complex models like Conway’s Game of Life, marking a significant advancement in optical computing Researchers have long sought to harness the ...

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 ...

The field programmable gate array has always been a different sort of animal in the semiconductor market. While it has evolved from just a bunch of logic gates that can emulate other hardware and ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. Programmable logic has been around since the days when new 8-bit microcontrollers were flourishing. And while 8-bit microcontrollers are still flourishing, ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The first FPGA was invented by Ross Freeman (cofounder of Xilinx) in 1985 and since then their logic capacity has ...

Algorithm-driven design is the norm rather than the exception for the modern system designer, often requiring them to incorporate higher performance integrated circuits (ICs). Unfortunately, the ...

Intel builds processor chips and Arm provides processor cores to integrate into chips. Xilinx and Intel (nee Altera) build FPGAs and a range of new startups provide embedded FPGA (eFPGA) to integrate ...
