Fourth Edition ISE 5.1i Programmable Logic Design Quick Start Hand Book By Karen Parnell & Nick Mehta June 2003 ABSTRACT Whether you design with discrete logic‚ base all of your designs on microcontrollers‚ or simply want to learn how to use the latest and most advanced programmable logic software‚ you will find this book an interesting insight into a different way to design. Programmable logic devices were invented in the late seventies and since then have proved to be very

Programmable Logic Controllers The purpose of this report is to elaborate the achievements in Programmble Logic Controllers as well as their implementation in the current engineering world. A PLC (i.e. Programmable Logic Controller) is a device that was invented to replace the necessary sequential relay circuits for machine control. The PLC works by looking at its inputs and depending upon their state‚ turning on/off its outputs. The user enters a program‚ usually via software‚ that gives the

Programmable Logic Controllers or PLCs were developed in the late sixties by Bedford Associates of Bedford‚ Massachusetts to replace the hard-wired relay control systems used at the General Motors Hydra-Matic automatic transmission plant (Programmable Logic Controller‚ 2014). While they are still used extensively‚ relays have some problems. The biggest problem being they are mechanical devices and like all things mechanical they wear out and have to be replaced quite often. In addition‚ relays take

"Ladder" diagrams Ladder diagrams are specialized schematics commonly used to document industrial control logic systems. They are called "ladder" diagrams because they resemble a ladder‚ with two vertical rails (supply power) and as many "rungs" (horizontal lines) as there are control circuits to represent. If we wanted to draw a simple ladder diagram showing a lamp that is controlled by a hand switch‚ it would look like this: The "L1" and "L2" designations refer to the two poles of

oil level rises above the low level sensor and it becomes open. (i.e. FALSE) Examples continued: Scan 4 After scan 4 the oil level rises above the high level sensor at it also becomes open (i.e. false) Scan 5 Since there is no more true logic path‚ output 500 is no longer energized (true) and therefore the motor turns off. Scan 6 After scan 6 the oil level falls below the high level sensor and it will become true again. Examples continued: Ladder diagram with Latching(Example

. Moletronics is expected to touch almost every aspect of our lives‚ right down to the water we drink and the air we breathe. Experimental work has already resulted in the production of molecular tweezers‚ a carbon nanotube transistor‚ and logic gates. Theoretical work is progressing as well. James M. Tour of Rice University is working on the construction of a molecular computer. Researchers at Zyvex have proposed an Exponential Assembly Process that might improve

ABSTRACT This report provides a survey of architectures of commercially available highcapacity field-programmable logic devices (FPLDs) ex. FPGAs and also the applications of FPGAs. We first define the relevant terminology in the field and then describe the recent evolution of FPLDs. The three main categories of FPLDs are delineated: Simple PLDs (SPLDs)‚ Complex PLDs (CPLDs) and Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The details of the architectures of the most important commercially available FPGAs are
