A Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) is a great piece of hardware to have in your repertoire. As its name implies, you can program these chips to serve the logic functions you need. This might ...

The guys over at hackshed have been busy. [Carl] is making programmable logic design easy with an 8 part CPLD tutorial. (March 2018: Link dead. Try the Wayback Machine.) Programmable logic devices are ...

In a programmable logic world increasingly populated by FPGAs, is there still a place for the humble Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLD)? Well, the folks at Lattice Semiconductor certainly think ...

Applications traditionally supported by high-density complex programmable-logic devices (CPLDs) and low-capacity FPGAs now have another option—the MachXO series of logic devices. Developed by Lattice ...

It is increasingly common for Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs) to be used in systems with stringent power budgets. Examples include smart phones, handheld instrumentation, video recording ...

This Design Idea further develops a previous one integrating a stepper-motor driver in a CPLD (Reference 1). However, this idea integrates not only the driver, but also a simple one-axis stepper-motor ...

Although the Altera MAX IIZ CPLD is a digital programmable logic device, it is versatile enough to control analog systems. This article shows how MAX IIZ CPLDs – alone or with a few passive ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...
