FPGA (field-programmable gate array)
This is a reprogrammable ASIC chip.
You know what a "truth table" is ? Here a example :<br />
'''XOR''' truth table :
A B | C
0 0 | 0
0 1 | 1
1 0 | 1
1 1 | 0
In a truth table you have got 2 input wires, and 1 output wires.
In ASIC you have got 10000000000000000 input/output wires.
As it is complex to feed the table values, a special language was make to feel them : [[VHDL]] (and -blech!!!- verilog)
GA in Amstrad is an ASIC.
