What is a programmable logic device (PLD)?

A.
Random Access Memory (RAM) that contains the software to perform specific tasks

B.
An integrated circuit with connections or internal logic gates that can be changed through a
programming process

C.
A volatile device

D.
A program resident on disk memory that executes a specific function

Explanation:
* Answer A volatile device is incorrect because a PLD is non-volatile. * Answer “Random Access
Memory (RAM) that contains the software to perform specific tasks” is incorrect because random
access memory is volatile memory that is not a nonvolatile logic device. * Answer “A program
resident on disk memory that executes a specific function” is a distracter.
