A gate array is an approach to the design and manufacture of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) using a prefabricated chip with components that are later interconnected into logic devices (e.g. NAND gates, flip-flops, etc.) according to custom order by adding metal interconnect layers in the factory. It was popular during the ...
Xilinx produced the first commercially viable field-programmable gate array in 1985 [3] – the XC2064. [5] The XC2064 had programmable gates and programmable interconnects between gates, the beginnings of a new technology and market. [6] The XC2064 had 64 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), with two three-input lookup tables (LUTs). [7]
The GAL22V10 is a series of programmable-logic devices from Lattice Semiconductor, implemented as CMOS-based generic array logic ICs, and available in dual inline packages or plastic leaded chip carriers. It is an example of a standard production GAL device that is often used in educational settings as a basic programmable-logic device.
High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing (HPRC) is a computer architecture combining reconfigurable computing-based accelerators like field-programmable gate array with CPUs or multi-core processors. The increase of logic in an FPGA has enabled larger and more complex algorithms to be programmed into the FPGA.
PLA schematic example. A programmable logic array (PLA) is a kind of programmable logic device used to implement combinational logic circuits.The PLA has a set of programmable AND gate planes, which link to a set of programmable OR gate planes, which can then be conditionally complemented to produce an output.
Logic design is a step in the standard design cycle in which the functional design of an electronic circuit is converted into the representation which captures logic operations, arithmetic operations, control flow, etc. A common output of this step is RTL description. Logic design is commonly followed by the circuit design step.

Pure, logic-only gate-array design is rarely implemented by circuit designers today, having been almost entirely replaced by field-programmable devices. The most prominent of such devices are field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) which can be programmed by the user and thus offer minimal tooling charges, non-recurring engineering, only ...
