GAL16V8C-5LJ

The GAL16V8C-5LJ from Lattice Semiconductor Corporation is a high-performance Electrically Erasable CMOS (E2CMOS) Programmable Logic Device (PLD) belonging to the Generic Array Logic (GAL) family. It is designed to provide high-speed performance with a maximum propagation delay of 3.5 ns and a maximum operating frequency (Fmax) of 250 MHz.

This device utilizes E2 cell technology, allowing for reconfigurable and reprogrammable logic with high-speed electrical erasure in under 100ms. It features eight Output Logic Macrocells (OLMCs) that offer maximum flexibility for complex logic designs and can emulate various 20-pin PAL architectures with full function, fuse map, and parametric compatibility. The GAL16V8C-5LJ also includes active pull-ups on all pins and supports preload and power-on reset for all registers, ensuring 100% functional testability.

Packaged in a PLCC20 format, the GAL16V8C-5LJ is suitable for applications requiring standard logic speed upgrades, DMA control, state machine control, and high-speed graphics processing. It offers a significant reduction in power consumption compared to bipolar devices, with typical ICC values of 75mA for low power and 45mA for quarter power configurations. The device is specified for 100 erase/write cycles and data retention exceeding 20 years.
