Suppose you had reduced a 32-variable Boolean expression using Quine–McCluskey algorithm to a 12-variable expression. For the generated simplified expression, you are required to implement it into a digital logic circuit. You can only use Programmable Array Logic (PAL) or Programmable Logic Array (PLA) devices. Assume that we had selected a Programmable Array Logic (PAL) and a Programmable Logic Array (PLA) for you to choose between. Using TICPAL22V10Z-25C (Programmable Array Logic) Using PLUS173–10 (Programmable Logic Array). Your selections among stated PLA and PAL must consider the following constraints: Complexity Flexibility Speed Functionality Cost

  Question:

Suppose you had reduced a 32-variable Boolean expression using Quine–McCluskey algorithm to a 12-variable expression. For the generated simplified expression, you are required to

implement it into a digital logic circuit. You can only use Programmable Array
 Logic (PAL) or Programmable Logic Array (PLA) devices.
Assume that we had selected a Programmable Array Logic (PAL) and
 a Programmable Logic Array (PLA) for you to choose between.
Using TICPAL22V10Z-25C (Programmable Array Logic)
Using PLUS173–10 (Programmable Logic Array).
Your selections among stated PLA and PAL must consider the
 following constraints:

• Complexity
• Flexibility
• Speed
• Functionality
• Cost

Solution:

I choose PLUS173–10 (Programmable Logic Array). PLA device has programmable AND gate and links with programmable OR gate. PLA complexity is high. Its speed is slower than PAL. The cost of PLA is high and uses less than PAL. The functionality number of PLA is large. It provides more programming flexibility.
