An introduction to programmable logic devices (plds) in the context of a digital logic design course. It covers the general structure of plds, the concept of programming by blowing fuses, and the notation used for and-gates, or-gates, and special cases. The document also introduces various types of plds, including and-array, or-array, prom, pla, and pal. Examples of logic design using prom and pla are provided, along with the structure of a prom and an explanation of how to use it for logic design.

PLD notation.
( a ) Unprogrammed and-gate. ( b ) Unprogrammed or-gate. ( c ) Programmed and-gate realizing the term ac****. ( d ) Programmed or-gate realizing the term a + b****. ( e ) Special notation for an and- gate having all its input fuses intact. ( f ) Special notation for an or-gate having all its input fuses intact. ( g ) And-gate with nonfusible inputs. ( h ) Or-gate with nonfusible inputs.
