We learnt in Chapter 12 that instead of implementing a minimized circuit using AND-OR arrays or NANDs or OR-AND arrays or NORs or ICs for the decoders, encoders, multiplexers or demultiplexers, or binary arithmetic adders, adder/subtractors, code converters, comparator, bit-wise 8-bit AND, OR, XOR circuits or parity generators, a complex combinational circuit can be easily assembled by programmable logic memories (ROM, EPROM, EEPROM or Flash or OTP).
In this chapter, we shall learn about two other forms of PLDs called PAL and PLA. We shall also study the implementation of the circuits using PAL and PLA.
