course in programmable digitaldevices (PDDs), a senior technical elective for electrical engineering technology majors was developed by theauthor at the University of Central Florida.1. IntroductionThe course in Programmable Digital Devices covers devices from simple PALs TM (programmable arraylogic)/GALs TM structures to CPLDs(complex PLDs) and FPGAs(field programmable gate arrays). The courseoutline is found in Appendix A. The architecture of the most commonly used chips in each category is coveredso that the student can have a good understanding of the resources available inside of those chips, theirlimitations, and the need for a more complex architecture as the design to be implemented grows in complexity.The prerequisites to the PDD course

The course was intendedto be of interest to students from business, engineering, and industrial sciences. Within business,interest was strongest with students from computer information systems (CIS), and MBAs withan interest in manufacturing, quality, and/or technology management. Mechanical engineeringand industrial technology were the two areas outside business most frequently represented afterCIS and MBAs.
