Abstract
A programmable logic device includes an AND array; an OR array; a buffer circuit connected between the AND array and OR array; and a number of decoder arrangements operatively connected to the AND array and OR array. By constituting the buffer such that the AND array and OR array are electrically associated even in a write operation of data, namely, the buffer is brought to an enable state, a logic verify of the buffer becomes unnecessary and, accordingly, a verify/check of written data can be carried out both easily and efficiently.
