I just hope they won't drop any of their CPLD chips. It would be a shame if only way to set up a simple logic circuits without having to use 74xxx was to use FP

- LIV2 6y agoYep, 5V tolerant CPLDs are a wonderful thing when you're making hardware for retro computers it would absolutely suck if the 9500XLs get discontinued.
- colejohnson66 6y agoCPLDs also have the advantage of being non volatile. That can make your circuit simpler as you just add a socket and use an external programmer. FPGAs require external storage and more.
- ur-whale 6y agoIndeed, they're really neat little devices and they're also dirt cheap.
