GAL16LV8D-3LJ – LATTICE SEMI

Overview

The Lattice GAL16LV8D-3LJ is a high-performance, 3.3V-compatible Simple Programmable Logic Device (SPLD) designed for complex combinatorial and sequential logic functions. Its core strength lies in its 250 MHz maximum operating frequency, enabling rapid digital signal processing. A critical design consideration when utilizing this device is managing its inherent propagation delay of 3.5 ns, which can become a bottleneck in ultra-high-speed synchronous designs if not carefully accounted for in clock domain crossing and critical path analysis. This PLCC-20 packaged SPLD offers a flexible architecture for logic optimization in demanding embedded systems.
