PALCE16V8 Lattice Semiconductor, PALCE16V8 Datasheet - Page 28

• Manufacturer Part Number: PALCE16V8
• Description: EE CMOS Zero-Power 20-Pin Universal Programmable Array Logic
• Manufacturer: Lattice Semiconductor

ENDURANCE CHARACTERISTICS
The PALCE16V8 is manufactured using Vantis’ advanced electrically-erasable (EE) CMOS process.
This technology uses an EE cell to replace the fuse link used in bipolar parts. As a result, the
device can be erased and reprogrammed—a feature which allows 100% testing at the factory.
ROBUSTNESS FEATURES
PALCE16V8X-X/5 devices have some unique features that make them extremely robust,
especially when operating in high-speed design environments. Pull-up resistors on inputs and
I/O pins cause unconnected pins to default to a known state. Input clamping circuitry limits
negative overshoot, eliminating the possibility of false clocking caused by subsequent ringing.
A special noise filter makes the programming circuitry completely insensitive to any positive
overshoot that has a pulse width of less than about 100 ns for the /5 versions. Selected /4 devices
are also being retrofitted with these robustness features.
