ABSTRACT:
A programmable logic device is disclosed which contains additional circuitry allowing the architecture to be programmed. Operating as an input circuit or as an output circuit, the logical function of the device is selected to operate as a buffer, latch or register. When fabricated as a portion of a programmable logic array, the architecture is modified to the desired configuration by fusible connections which conduct normal operating current until overloaded by selective programming. Thereafter, the data path through the array is programmed in a normal fashion. The programmable architecture circuitry is readily fabricated in an integrated circuit form in conjunction with a programmable logic array.
