ATF16V8CZ-15PC

Optimized for high-frequency trading systems, Atmel's ATF16V8CZ-15PC delivers unparalleled performance in Embedded - PLDs (Programmable Logic Device). This ultra-low latency programmable logic device features deterministic timing characteristics critical for algorithmic trading applications. Its architecture minimizes jitter and skew while providing the flexibility to implement complex order matching logic.Utilizing EE PLD technology, the device implements hardened clock domain crossing circuits and phase-aligned I/O banks for nanosecond-level timing precision.The 8 macrocell configuration supports parallel processing pipelines and low-latency arbiters essential for market data processing.Operating at 5V, the IC incorporates precision voltage regulators that maintain signal integrity in high-speed serial links.Achieving 15 ns propagation delays, the device enables sub-microsecond trade execution times required for competitive trading strategies.The Through Hole design incorporates impedance-controlled mounting pads for high-frequency signal integrity preservation.The 20-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) package features optimized power delivery networks and controlled dielectric materials for 25G+ serial interfaces.Supplied in 20-PDIP, this financial-grade variant includes additional EMI shielding for operation in dense server farm environments.
