Product details

7.5 ns — the timing budget for this 20-pin PLD

The Microchip ATF16V8C-7PU is an EE PLD from the 16V8 family with 8 macrocells in a 20-pin DIP. Its 7.5 ns propagation delay sets the ceiling for combinatorial logic paths. The 5V-only I/O mates directly with legacy TTL and 5V CMOS buses.

8 macrocells and a 5V rail — what fits, what does not

Eight macrocells can be configured as registered flip-flops or product-term-wide combinatorial functions. The 20-DIP footprint (0.300-inch row spacing) is a through-hole package. The 5V supply rail is non-negotiable.

The 20-DIP through-hole package keeps it compatible with existing socketed boards and legacy designs that cannot migrate to surface-mount.

Frequently asked questions

Can ATF16V8C-7PU be used in a 3.3V system?

No — the ATF16V8C-7PU is a 5V-only device. Its input logic thresholds and output drive are specified for a 5V rail. Driving it from a 3.3V source will not meet the VIH minimum, and its outputs will swing to 5V, which may damage 3.3V downstream logic without level translation.

What is the closest functional second-source for ATF16V8C-7PU?

The ATF16V8BQL-15XU is a pin-compatible 16V8-family device with the same 8 macrocells and 5V supply, but a slower 15 ns propagation delay and a surface-mount package. It is a functional replacement if your timing budget allows the extra 7.5 ns and your board accepts surface-mount soldering.
