5 Summary

State machines are central to many designs. The single press button design can be utilized as a starting point in your design by selecting the TPLD1202 device in InterConnect Studio, and searching for smart button controller. TI's new programmable logic family gives a great way to declare and design a state machine without having to use programming languages, an FPGA, or an MCU.

More information for the TPLD family of devices can be found at Programmable Logic Devices (PLD) and refer to Table 5-1 for some available devices and evaluation modules to prototype.
