Over on the University of Reddit there’s a course for learning all about FPGAs and CPLDs. It’s just an introduction to digital logic, but with a teacher capable of building a CPLD motor control board ...

[Kodera2t] wanted to experiment with programmable logic. Instead of going with an FPGA board, he decided to build his own CPLD (complex programmable logic device) board, with a built-in programmer.

In its third major and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) announcement in the last 12 months, Lattice Semiconductor Corp. has introduced MachXO, a new product family that combines the key features ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

Adding to the CoolRunner-II CPLD family, the XC2C32A and XC2C64A debut in smaller MLF packages than their predecessors and integrate an additional I/O bank to support voltage level translation and ...

Applications traditionally supported by high-density complex programmable-logic devices (CPLDs) and low-capacity FPGAs now have another option—the MachXO series of logic devices. Developed by Lattice ...

This Design Idea further develops a previous one integrating a stepper-motor driver in a CPLD (Reference 1). However, this idea integrates not only the driver, but also a simple one-axis stepper-motor ...

Rajiv Nema, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Cypress Semiconductor, Inc., San Jose, Calif., Andrew Randall, Chief Engineer, Nexsan Technologies, Inc., Woodland Hills ...

Altera has begun shipping the first member of its MAX II device family, the EPM1270. The device contains 1,270 logic elements, typically equivalent to 980 macrocells, said the firm, and 8kbit of ...
