National Semiconductor

* Programmable Logic Device (PLD) IC Macrocells

General Description

The EECMOS GAL16V8QS devices are fabricated using National's CS80BEV 0.8μ Electrically Erasable CMOS pro-cess.

This advanced process makes National's GAL16V8QS extremely fast, allowing controlled output edge rates which dramatically

reduce noise. Low noise is actually specified and guaranteed with National's GAL16V8QS Quiet Series™ devices.

National's fast programming algorithm allows the GAL16V8QS to be programmed significantly faster than similar devices using

industry standard programmers. Fast programming reduces the cost of programming by greatly increasing programming throughput.

National guarantees a minimum of 100 erase/write cycles.

Unique test circuitry and reprogrammable cells allow com-plete AC, DC, cell, and functionality testing during manufac-ture.

Therefore, National guarantees 100% field programm-ability and functionality of GAL® devices. In addition, a se-curity

circuit is built-in,providing proprietary designs with copy protection.
