The aim of these help pages is to introduce the ADuC PLA Tool. The tool is designed as an easy to use, graphical user interface, which allows the user to configure the Programmable Logic Array found on the Analog Devices ADuC7000 Series of ARM based MicroConverters.


The margin on the left hand side contains a list of the topics contained in these pages. They are listed in an order which reflects how they may arise when using the PLA Tool. Below the "contents" is a second menu which lists some of the PLA Tool's special features. These are discussed at several points during the main sections however these links are available for quick reference. At any point you can click on the "home" icon in the top right hand corner and it will bring you back to this starting point.
