If by breadboards you mean plug-in breadboards, AC logic often does

You make another good point, that is worth repeating.
With RS-422, it’s not just the usual RX to TX and TX to RX confusion. You can
have all that right and still get it wrong. The + and - of each must be
properly identified and connected.
That sounds easy, but there is a catch. If you

Actually the error message is a “feature” of SCPI. It’s one that I never

You need to send a command (or power cycle) to clear the error que. It’s like
GPIB in that regard. The errors stack up as you send commands and you must toss
out each one out. Once

That means in a divide by 5 you cant even get close to 125MHz even if the
74lvc163 is rated at 200MHz count frequency. Very good point.

licensed by Lattice and I think they still support the old 16V8 and 22V10
Francesco,
If you can handle tqfp packages then the Lattice parts are a worthy PAL
replacement. The LC4032V clocks at up to 400MHz with 2.5ns delay, and that part
at slower speed costs down to only $1.43 at mouser. Its a simple architecture
with deterministic timing, kind of like a Super-PAL

There are a wide range of chips you can use for “proper” RS-422. There are also

I’ve done a lot of designs with Altera parts. They are fine parts, but they are
not magic. On the CPLD parts, be careful of the speed grade and be sure you do
a timing analysis on your design before you buy any hardware. All the design
tools are schematic entry capable and free on the web.
It seems that Mr. Richard of Potato Semiconductor has issued a patent:

We do most our projects with Altera G/A.
The biggest benefit is that if something does not work on first pass
changing the G/A logic is much faster, less costly than a new board layout.
