An Arithmetic Logic Unit that includes first multiplexers coupled to a first adder, the first multiplexers controlled by a first opcode register; second multiplexers receiving input from the first adder and coupled to a second adder; and a second opcode register for controlling one or more of the second multiplexers, the first adder, or the second adder. A combination of the bits in the first and second opcode registers configures the ALU to perform one or more arithmetic operations or one or more logic operations or any combination thereof.

A digital clock manager having differential clock signal paths is provided. The differential clock signal paths are provided by replacing single-ended circuit elements of a conventional digital clock manager with symmetrical cascade voltage switch logic (CVSL) circuit elements, including CVSL delay buffers, CVSL multiplexers, CVSL AND gates, CVSL OR gates and CVSL set-reset latches. These symmetrical CVSL AND gates, CVSL OR gates and CVSL set-reset latches represent new circuit elements.

Structures and methods of including processor capabilities in an existing PLD architecture with minimal disruption to the existing general interconnect structure. In a PLD including a column of block RAM (BRAM) blocks, the BRAM blocks are modified to create specialized logic blocks including a RAM, a processor, and a dedicated interface coupled between the RAM, the processor, and the general interconnect structure of the PLD. The additional area is obtained by increasing the width of the column of BRAM blocks. Because the interconnect structure remains virtually unchanged, the interconnections between the specialized logic blocks and the adjacent tiles are already in place, and the modifications do not affect the PLD routing software. In some embodiments, the processor can be optionally disabled, becoming transparent to the user. Other embodiments provide methods of modifying a PLD to include the structures and provide the capabilities described above.

A PLD can be manufactured to include power supply lines from two sources so that a portion of the PLD can be backed up with a battery when power to the PLD is removed. A switch that supplies power to the backed up portion of the PLD receives power from both an external power supply and from the battery, and detects voltage level of the external power supply, switching to battery power when voltage from the external power supply is not sufficient.

A programmable logic device (PLD) comprises at least one configurable element, and a plurality of programmable logic elements for configuring the configurable element(s). Alternatively, a PLD comprises an interconnect structure and a plurality of programmable logic elements for configuring the interconnect structure. In either embodiment, at least one of the programmable logic elements includes N memory cells. A predetermined one of the N memory cells forms part of a memory slice, wherein at least a portion of each slice of the programmable logic device is allocated to either configuration data or user data memory. Typically, one memory slice provides one configuration of the programmable logic device. In accordance with one embodiment, a memory access port is coupled between at least one of the N memory cells and either one configurable element or the interconnect, thereby facilitating loading of new configuration data into other memory slices during the one configuration. The new configuration data may include off-chip or on-chip data. The present invention typically allocates at least one slice to user data memory and includes means for disabling access to at least one of the N memory cells.

Antibody/signal-generating moiety conjugates are disclosed that include an antibody covalently linked to a signal-generating moiety through a heterobifunctional polyalkyleneglycol linker. The disclosed conjugates show exceptional signal-generation in immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization assays on tissue sections and cytology samples. In one embodiment, enzyme-metallographic detection of nucleic acid sequences with hapten-labeled probes can be accomplished using the disclosed conjugates as a primary antibody without amplification.

In one embodiment an IC is disclosed which includes a plurality of cascaded digital signal processing slices, wherein each slice has a multiplier coupled to an adder via a multiplexer and each slice has a direct connection to an adjoining slice; and means for configuring the plurality of digital signal processing slices to perform one or more mathematical operations, via, for example, opmodes. This IC allows for the implementation of some basic math functions, such as add, subtract, multiply and divide. Many other applications may be implemented using the one or more DSP slices, for example, accumulate, multiply accumulate (MACC), a wide multiplexer, barrel shifter, counter, and folded, decimating, and interpolating FIRs to name a few.
