QUESTION 41

Which of the following types match the characteristics of FPGA?

Choose one option.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B. PLD

FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a type of PLD (Programmable Logic Device). PLDs are semiconductor devices that can be programmed to implement digital logic functions after manufacturing. While FPGAs may use SRAM for configuration storage internally, SRAM itself is not a classification of FPGA. EPROM and SLD are not standard device classifications related to FPGAs.

Step-by-step Derivation:
FPGAs are classified as a subset of PLDs. The hierarchy is: PLD → FPGA (along with CPLD and other PLD types). SRAM is a memory technology used in some FPGA implementations but not a device type classification. EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a memory type, not a logic device category. SLD is not a recognized acronym in digital logic classification.
