Guys, it has probably been 30 years since I played with PLD's and then moved over to microcontrollers and never looked back. I am now, however, looking back and want to know what the latest low-cost, and not nearing obsolescence, types of platforms I should look at. I want to build a first fault detector for a security system to indicate which monitored window or door was the first to trigger. Lets say 12 input signals where only the first to fault would latch. This is simple "AND, OR, S-R type logic gates I could have done in a PLD back in the 90's but of course all that stuff is obsolete and I would prefer to do this on a single chip instead of discrete logic chips. I could probably still do this within the microcontroller using port-pin interrupts, but I'm just curious about dabbling into PLD's again. Is there some super-simple logic drop, drag, and wire it up software that downloads into a PLD?
