Product details

The Microchip ATF16V8BQL-15XU is an electrically erasable programmable logic device (EE PLD) from the 16V8 series, offering 8 macrocells in a 20-TSSOP surface-mount package. It operates on a 5V input supply and delivers a 15 ns propagation delay, making it suitable for board-level glue logic, address decoding, and simple state-machine implementations in industrial control, telecom, and consumer equipment where small-footprint reprogrammable logic is needed.

The 15 ns propagation delay sets the maximum combinatorial path the PLD can handle without adding wait states. For a typical 5V system, this part leaves margin for address-decode and chip-select tasks.

Package and assembly

Housed in a 20-TSSOP (4.40 mm width) package, this part is a surface-mount device intended for reflow soldering. Supplied in tube, not tape-and-reel.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to ATF16V8BQL-15XU?

Within the 16V8 family, the ATF16V8BQL-15 (without the XU suffix) is the same device in a different package variant — the XU suffix denotes the 20-TSSOP package. For a direct drop-in replacement, any 16V8BQL part in the same 20-TSSOP package and speed grade is pin-compatible.

Can ATF16V8BQL-15XU be programmed with standard tools?

Yes, as an EE PLD in the 16V8 architecture, it is supported by standard programmers that handle Atmel/Microchip 16V8 devices, including common third-party programmers and the Microchip programming ecosystem.

What is the difference between ATF16V8B and ATF16V8BQL?

The ATF16V8BQL is a low-power variant of the ATF16V8B, offering reduced quiescent current. Both share the same 16V8 architecture and macrocell count; the BQL suffix indicates the low-power option.
