Programmable Array Logic

Programmable Array Logic (PAL) is a programmable logic device with a programmable AND array and fixed OR array. It is easier to use than a Programmable Logic Array but less flexible because only the AND array is programmable. PAL consists of a small Programmable Read Only Memory and additional output logic to implement desired logic functions with limited components. PAL has programmable AND gates followed by fixed OR gates, allowing simpler programming than PLA which has programmable AND and OR gates. PAL provides advantages of low cost, high efficiency, security, reliability and flexibility compared to other programmable logic devices.

Comparison • Main Difference between PLA, PAL and
ROM is their basic structure.

with other • In PLA, Programmable AND gate is followed


by programmable OR gate.

Programmable • In PAL, programmable AND gate is followed


by fixed OR gate.

Logic Devices • In ROM, fixed AND gate is followed by


programmable OR gate array.
Example of PAL (1 of 2)

• Example 1: Implement the Boolean functions


F1= A’BC’D + A’BCD’ + ABC’D and F2= A’BC’ +
A’BC + AB’C + ABC’ with PAL device.
• Solution: The given Boolean expressions can
be simplified to get a reduced equation:
Example of PAL (2 of 2)

• The simplified expression can be


realized using PAL. The given function
has four inputs and two outputs.
• It has five product terms. Each
Product term is obtained by placing
the fuse link to the corresponding
input line.
Advantages of PAL
• Highly Efficient
• Low Production cost as compared to PLA
• Highly secure
• High Reliability
• Low power required for working
• More flexible to design
