DESCRIPTION
The new PLC42VA12 CMOS PLD from
Philips Semiconductors exhibits a unique
combination of the two architectural concepts
that revolutionized the PLD marketplace.
The Philips Semiconductors unique Output
Macro Cell (OMC) embodies all the
advantages and none of the disadvantages
associated with the “V” type Output Macro
Cell devices. This new design, combined with
added functionality of two programmable
arrays, represents a significant advancement
in the configurability and efficiency of
multi-function PLDs.
The most significant improvement in the
Output Macro Cell structure is the
implementation of the register bypass
function. Any of the 10 J-K/D registers can be
individually bypassed, thus creating a
combinatorial I/O path from the AND array to
the output pin. Unlike other “V” type devices,
the register in the PLC42VA12 Macro Cell
remains fully functional as a buried register.
Both the combinatorial I/O and buried register
have separate input paths (from the AND
array). In most V-type architectures, the
register is lost as a resource when the cell is
configured as a combinatorial I/O. This
feature provides the capability to operate the
buried register independently from the
combinatorial I/O.
The PLC42VA12 is an EPROM-based CMOS
device. Designs can be generated using
Philips Semiconductors SNAP PLD design
software packages or one of several other
commercially available JEDEC standard PLD
design software packages.
