The two biggest causes of slow simulation are:
Fast oscillators and switching signals
Large simulation timescales (simulations that take 1+ seconds)
If the simulation is utilizing a square wave with a period that is much smaller…

Numerous TPLD products are either pin to pin or layout compatible with competing products. Our products utilize standard, JEDEC packaging standards.
FAQ: TPLD > Current FAQ
Once a TPLD is permanently programmed or “burned” through OTP, the design cannot be changed. If you wish to change your design after permanently programming an OTP part, a new, previously unprogrammed part must be used.…
FAQ: TPLD > Current FAQ
TPLD is programmed through SPI communication enabled by the programmer firmware and InterConnect Studio (ICS). Each TPLD device uses 5 pins to program the device: 4 pins for SPI communication and 1 pin (GPI) that provides a specific…
