Hi all Does anyone know what is the cheapest 3.3V CPLD available? My desing uses 31 macrocells, and 33 I/O. Currently using Xilinx XC9536XL available for around US$0.70 a piece (for 100k quantities). The design is pretty slow GCK~2MHz. I need 100k+ quantities. Thanks ZK

But I will say that $0.70 is a pretty good price. Also, most CPLDs are in multiples of 16, so you may have to bump up to a 48 or 64 macrocell device which might not be competitive. I believe Lattice (or was it Actel) has some new parts coming out that are very price competitive, but they may all be larger than you want. Like I said, $0.70 might be hard to beat.
