GAL16V8D-25LPNI — EE PLD, 8 macrocells, DIP-20
The Lattice Semiconductor GAL16V8D-25LPNI is an electrically erasable programmable logic device (EE PLD) from the GAL®16V8 series, offering 8 macrocells in a 20-pin DIP package. Housed in a 20-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole package (20-PDIP), it is a field-swappable part — no hot-air station needed, just a DIP socket and a steady hand.
What the 8 macrocells mean for a repair or redesign
Eight macrocells means eight configurable logic blocks that can implement combinatorial or registered functions — enough for glue logic, address decoding, or small state machines in legacy control boards. The EE PLD technology allows in-system reprogramming, so a single part can serve multiple board revisions without a UV eraser — useful when you are troubleshooting a line and the logic needs a quick tweak.
Lattice Semiconductor has marked the GAL16V8D-25LPNI as obsolete. Quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ — no stock-holding claim from this desk.
