You are right of course, I just think that at less than $0.2 a pc for
an 80 macro cells, 10 kbits ram option PLD, it's relatively cheap.
The problem is if you can really can use it or not...

These devices were based on the original Intel Flexlogic and were
generally good but did have the limitation of a 24V10 internal block
structures. A lot of designs struggled with the fan-in limitations and
the family didn't last long as an Altera product probably in part
because of this. From my scratchy memory I think use of these pretty
much died out about 10-12 years ago.

Hi, I have lots (thousands) of Altera EPX880 (FlashLogic). This device
is obsolete and the only software I know that can be used to design it
is PLDShell Plus V5.1. Anybody know where to download it please...???
I contacted Altera they said they don't have it anymore...
Thanks and best regards,
