Description
PLAnkton is the PLA substitute designed and produced by Eslapion (Quebec, CA). After the manifacturing of the well known and popular C64 version, here is the new version for the Commodore 264 series, designed to replace PLA 251641-02. It is being sold in two different shapes: the C16 and C116 dedicated one (green in the pictures), and the one specifically designed for the tight spaces of the Plus/4 (the blue one in the pictures).

Features and characteristics:
- Draws only 20mA - 1/5 the power of an original Commodore PLA, the same as a small green LED;
- Produces no discernable heat;
- Designed by qualified professionals using actual electrical engineering practices to produce electrical signals of EXACTLY the same voltages as a genuine Commodore PLA and speed within +/-2ns of accuracy;
- Made by Eslapion, creator of the original C64 PLAnkton using industry standard circuit boards, new parts and professional soldering and assembly methods;
- 100% compatible (actually tested) with ALL PAL & NTSC TED computers including the C16, C116 and Plus/4;
- Made only using new, currently available, genuine Xilinx circuits purchased from an authorized distributor;
- Industry grade Preci-DIP (made in Switzerland) pins for best reliability and longevity.
