Programmable Logic Device - PLD - and CUPL
Kanda PLD - Programmable Logic Device - programmer and programmable logic kits are ideal for electronic training especially logic training. The PLD logic training kits use CUPL PLD description language and feature Atmel 16V8 Programmable Logic Device. CPLD and PLD programmers are also available.
This PLD logic training kit has an experiment board with an Atmel AT 16V8 and lights, switches, 7-segment LED, Clock and output enable. Plus a PLD programmer for Atmel 16V8, 20V8 and 22V10 PLD. A version of CUPL description language and a book is included in the logic training kit and a full version of CUPL description language can be downloaded.
The PLD Programmer in the PLD Logic traing kit supports Atmel 16V8, 20V8 and 22V10 devices but not CPLD.
Our Universal programmers from Wellon support PLD and CPLD programmable Logic Devices, so if you want to program CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device), or 16V8, 20V8 or 22V10 PLD from other manufacturers, then have a look at:
Universal programmers with CPLD and PLD support.
The Wellon programmer range are low cost and different versions support a wide range of flash, EPROM, DRAM, SRAM and EEPROM memory, PLD, CPLD, and microcontrollers.
Atmel simple PLD (Programmable Logic Device) such as 16V8 and 22V10 are flash based programmable logic, so are re-programmable 100's of times. They are configured using the CUPL Description language and can be equivalent to older PAL and GAL devices or used as 16V8 or 22V10 devices.
The 16V8 PLD is ideal for logic training and general electronics as it can be programmed to be logic gates, inverters, flip-flops and registers using the CUPL programmable logic description language. It, and other Programmable Logic Devices (PLD)like 22V10 also give security and flexibility to your electronic circuits.
CUPL Programmable Logic Description Language is a compiler that converts logic equations into a Fuse map (JEDEC file) for the PLD programmer. Pins can be named, logic equations are simplified, Karnaugh maps can be employed and state machine techniques can be used.
The full version of CUPL programmble logic description language has simulation tools for testing equations, syntax for state machines and support for CPLD.
