Reverse engineering PAL chips


On the IBM 5152 motherboard, U27 and U81 are 'programmable array logic' (PAL) chips.



Chip U27

U27 is marked "59X7599".  59X7599 is the IBM part number.  (Other IBM part numbers for this part may exist.)

IBM's circuit diagram for the IBM 5162 motherboard has U27 indicated as being type 20L8.

Content of the chip: {yet to locate}    (the MAME project has this as file '59x7599.mmipal20l8.u27.jed')
