PALCE16V8
Document #: 38-03025 Rev. *A Page 2 of 13
Functional Description
The PALCE16V8 is executed in a 20-pin 300-mil molded DIP,
a 300-mil cerdip, a 20-lead square ceramic leadless chip
carrier, and a 20-lead square plastic leaded chip carrier.
The device provides up to 16 inputs and 8 outputs. The
PALCE16V8 can be electrically erased and reprogrammed.
The programmable macrocell enables the device to function
as a superset to the familiar 20-pin PLDs such as 16L8, 16R8,
16R6, and 16R4.
The PALCE16V8 features 8 pr oduct terms per output an d 32
input terms into the AND array. The first product term in a
macrocell can be used either as an internal output enable
control or as a data product term.
There are a total of 18 architecture bits in the PALCE16V8
macrocell; two are global bits that a pply to al l macrocells and
16 that apply locally, two bits per macrocell. The architecture
bits determine whether the macrocell functions as a register or
combinatorial with inverting or noninverting output. The output
enable control can come from an external pin or internally from
a product term. The output can also be permanently enabled,
functioning as a dedicated output or permanently disabled,
functioning as a dedicated input. Feedback paths are
selectable from either the input/output pin associated with the
macrocell, the input/output pin associated with an adjacent
pin, or from the macrocell register itself.
Power-Up Reset
All registers in the PALCE16V8 power-up to a logic LOW for
predictable system initialization. For each register, the
associated output pin will be HIGH due to active-LOW outputs.
Electronic Signature
An electronic signature word is provided in the PALCE16V8
that consists of 64 bits of programmable memory that can
contain user-defined data.
Security Bit
A security bit is provided that defeats the readback of the
internal programmed pattern when the bit is pro gra mmed.
Low Power
The Cypress PALCE16V8 provides low-power operation
through the use of CMOS technology , and increased testability
with Flash reprogrammability.
Product Term Disable
Product Term Disable (PTD) fuses are included for each
product term. The PTD fuses allow each product term to be
individually disabled.
