General Description
The PEEL18CV8 is a Programmable Electrically Erasable Logic (PEEL) device providing an attractive alternative to ordinary PLDs. The PEEL18CV8 offers the performance, flexibility, ease of design and production practicality needed by logic designers today.
The PEEL18CV8 is available in 20-pin DIP, PLCC, SOIC and TSSOP packages with speeds ranging from 5ns to 25ns with power consumption as low as 37mA. EE-Reprogrammability provides the convenience of instant reprogramming for development and reusable production inventory minimizing the impact of programming changes or errors. EE-Reprogrammability also improves factory testability, thus assuring the highest quality possible.
The PEEL18CV8 architecture allows it to replace over 20 standard 20-pin PLDs (PAL, GAL, EPLD etc.). It also provides additional architecture features so more logic can be put into every design. ICT’s JEDEC file translator instantly converts to the PEEL18CV8 existing 20-pin PLDs without the need to rework the existing design. Development and programming support for the PEEL18CV8 is provided by popular third-party programmers and development software. ICT also offers free PLACE development software and a low-cost development system (PDS-3).
