The MACH435 is a member of our high-performance EE CMOS MACH 4 family. This device has approximately twelve times the macrocell capability of the popular PAL22V10, with significant density and functional features that the PAL22V10 does not provide. The MACH435 consists of eight PAL blocks interconnected by a programmable central switch matrix. The central switch matrix connects the PAL blocks to each other and to all input pins, providing a high degree of connectivity between the fully-connected PAL blocks. This allows designs to be placed and routed efficiently. Routability is further enhanced by an input switch matrix and an output switch matrix. The input switch matrix provides input signals with alternative paths into the central switch matrix; the output switch matrix provides flexibility in assigning macrocells to I/O pins. The MACH435 has macrocells that can be configured as synchronous or asynchronous. This allows designers to implement both synchronous and asynchronous logic
