EP220 & EP224 Classic EPLDs
The XOR gate can implement active-high or active-low logic, and can use
DeMorgan’s inversion to reduce the number of product terms needed to
implement a function.
If the EP220 and EP224 register outputs do not require an OE signal, the
internal product term can hold the output in an enabled state; if a global
OE signal is required, any input can be dedicated to the task, and all eight
product terms can be programmed accordingly.
High-Frequency, Low-Skew Global Clock
EP220 and EP224 devices have extremely low output-pin skew: registered
output skew (tOCR) is typically less than 300 ps; combinatorial output
skew (tOSC) is typically less than 400 ps. This low output-skew rate makes
EP220 and EP224 devices ideal for high-frequency system Clock
applications, including Intel Pentium microprocessors, 486-based PCs,
and PCI bus designs.
The EP220 and EP224 devices are a logical superset of most high-speed,
24-pin PAL/GAL devices. Industry-standard JEDEC Files from
compatible devices can be programmed into EP220 or EP224 devices.
Table 1 summarizes some of the devices that can be replaced or upgraded
with EP220 and EP224 devices.
