PLA

PLA, or Programmable Logic Array, is a type of digital circuit used to implement logical functions. It consists of a grid of programmable connections that can be configured to perform specific logic operations like AND, OR, and NOT on input signals. By setting these connections, a PLA can be customized to produce desired outputs based on different combinations of inputs. This flexibility makes PLAs useful in digital systems for creating complex logic functions efficiently, especially in programmable devices, allowing designers to modify circuit behavior without redesigning hardware.
