Using the same technology as [[EPROM]]s, '''EPLD'''s have a quartz window in the package that allows them to be erased on exposure to UV light.<ref name="Ndjountche" /><ref name="Maxfield" />

Using the same technology as [[EEPROM]]s, '''EEPLDs''' can be erased electrically.<ref name="Ndjountche" >

An '''erasable programmable logic device''' ('''EPLD''') is an integrated circuit that comprises an array of PLDs that do not come pre-connected; the connections are programmed electrically by the user. Most GAL and FPGA devices are examples of EPLDs.
