Programmable array logic (PAL) is a programmable device used to implement combinational logic circuits. The PAL, in comparison to the PLA has a fixed set of OR gates, and thus a fixed number of programmable AND planes. However, the PAL allows reuse of function outputs, and can be then used in another PAL program block.

The other commonly used programmable logic device is the PAL.
