An electronic signature is provided in every GAL16V8 device. It
contains 64 bits of reprogrammable memory that can contain user
defined data. Some uses include user ID codes, revision num-
bers, or inventory control. The signature data is always available
to the user independent of the state of the security cell.
NOTE: The electronic signature is included in checksum calcu-
lations. Changing the electronic signature will alter the checksum.
A security cell is provided in the GAL16V8 devices to prevent un-
authorized copying of the array patterns. Once programmed, this
cell prevents further read access to the functional bits in the de-
vice. This cell can only be erased by re-programming the device,
so the original configuration can never be examined once this cell
is programmed. The Electronic Signature is always available to
the user, regardless of the state of this control cell.
GAL16V8 devices are designed with an on-board charge pump
to negatively bias the substrate. The negative bias minimizes the
potential of latch-up caused by negative input undershoots.
Additionally, outputs are designed with n-channel pull-ups instead
of the traditional p-channel pull-ups in order to eliminate latch-up
due to output overshoots.
GAL devices are programmed using a Lattice Semiconductor-
approved Logic Programmer, available from a number of manu-
facturers. Complete programming of the device takes only a few
seconds. Erasing of the device is transparent to the user, and is
done automatically as part of the programming cycle.

When testing state machine designs, all possible states and state
transitions must be verified in the design, not just those required
in the normal machine operations. This is because, in system
operation, certain events occur that may throw the logic into an
illegal state (power-up, line voltage glitches, brown-outs, etc.). To
test a design for proper treatment of these conditions, a way must
be provided to break the feedback paths, and force any desired
(i.e., illegal) state into the registers. Then the machine can be
sequenced and the outputs tested for correct next state conditions.
GAL16V8 devices include circuitry that allows each registered
output to be synchronously set either high or low. Thus, any
present state condition can be forced for test sequencing. If
necessary, approved GAL programmers capable of executing text
vectors perform output register preload automatically.
GAL16V8 devices are designed with TTL level compatible input
buffers. These buffers have a characteristically high impedance,
and present a much lighter load to the driving logic than bipolar
TTL devices.
The GAL16V8 input and I/O pins have built-in active pull-ups. As
a result, unused inputs and I/O's will float to a TTL "high" (logi-
cal "1"). Lattice Semiconductor recommends that all unused
inputs and tri-stated I/O pins be connected to another active input,
