GAL16V8

Dec 10, 2007 4 Replies

Hello, I have a simple project in mind and have some GAL16V8 PLD's knocking around, could anyone suggest a design suite that still supports these devices along with an associated url.



Many Thanks. Martin Charlwood



Do you have a PROM burner? The GAL predated incircuit programming, you will need a prom burner that supports the GAL16V8. If you don't have one then you should forget about using your GALs.

You will also need ABEL or PALASM, Google for PALASM and ABEL.

Atmel WinCUPL will support the 16V8, as well as 20V8 and 22V10. (Atmel's version is called ATF16V8BQL etc ) As mentioned, you will need a device programmer.

Lattice still makes the devices, and its ispLEVER Classic tools are free d/l from the

website. Includes ABEL, and with Synplicity and Precision RTL included, will support VHDL or Verilog as well. here's the link -
