ATF2500C

The ATF2500C is the highest-density PLD available in a 44-pin package. With its fully connected logic array and flexible macrocell structure, high gate utilization is easily obtainable. The ATF2500 C is a high-performance CMOS (electrically-erasable) programmable logic device (PLD) that utilizes Atmel's proven electrically-erasable technology.

The ATF2500C is organized around a single universal array. All pins and feedback terms are always available to every macrocell. Each of the 38 logic pins are array inputs, as are the outputs
of each flip-flop.

In the ATF2500C, four product terms are input to each sum term. Furthermore, each macrocell's three sum terms can be combined to provide up to 12 product terms per sum term with no performance penalty. Each flip-flop is individually selectable to be either D- or T-type, providing further logic compaction. Also, 24 of the flip-flops may be bypassed to provide internal combinatorial feedback to the logic array.

ATF2500C Product terms provide individual clocks and asynchronous resets for each flip-flop. The flipflops may also be individually configured to have direct input pin clocking. Each output has its own enable product term. Eight synchronous preset product terms serve local groups of either four or eight flip-flops. Register preload functions are provided to simplify testing. All registers automatically reset upon power-up.
