I would agree that a CPLD would probably be more appropriate, however may
be that your 'problem' can also be solved by a micro depending on the
complexity of the logic and required speed.

For those who don't know a CPLD is basically a set of D-Type latches fed
with AND/OR matrix, which can be configured to perform logic functions or
even to run simple state machines.

A FPGA is more versatile, but generally a lot more complex/expensive.
