Description
Summary:This chapter examines the increasing density and size of logical and digital circuits. The implementation is based on programmable logic circuits (PLC) that seems the most appropriate and economical way of meeting the needs of different applications with a low production volume, rather than an approach that uses discrete components. In addition to the programmable read‐only memory (PROM) circuit, there are other architectures for programmable circuits: programmable array logic (PAL), programmable logic array (PLA), complex programmable logic device (CPLD) and field programmable gate array (FPGA). However, the generic denomination, programmable logic device (PLD), is generally only used for architectures introduced to implement two‐level circuits such as PAL, PLA or other versions of similar circuits. The Virtex‐5 FPGA from Xilinx, for example, uses two different types of logic blocks. Comparison of programmable logic circuits Input/output blocks of an FPGA play the role of a communication interface with external components.
