…order of complexity, simple programmable logic devices (SPLDs), comprising programmable array logic, programmable logic array and generic array logic; complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs); and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). In 1969, Motorola offered the XC157, a mask-programmed gate array with 12 gates and 30 uncommitted…
