    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A method of time multiplexing a programmable logic device (PLD) includes inputting a design for the PLD and dividing an evaluation of the logic of the design into a plurality of micro cycles. The method further includes identifying the logic not within a critical path of the design and rescheduling the identified logic for evaluation in other micro cycles. Alternatively, if the PLD includes a plurality of combinational logic elements, the method further includes scheduling a combinational logic element in a micro cycle no earlier than all the combinational logic elements that generate the input signals to said combinational logic element. Further alternatively, if the PLD includes a plurality of combinational logic elements and a plurality of sequential logic elements, the method further includes scheduling a sequential logic element in a micro cycle no earlier than all the combinational logic elements that generate input signals to the sequential logic element and scheduling each sequential logic element in a micro cycle no earlier than all the combinational logic elements or the sequential logic elements that the sequential logic element drives. If the PLD includes a plurality of combinational logic elements, a plurality of sequential logic elements, and a storage device, the method further includes mapping at least one of the sequential logic elements in the design into the storage device and scheduling the plurality of combinational logic elements and the remaining sequential logic elements.

    摘要: Described are arithmetic circuits divided logically into a product generator and an adder. Multiplexing circuitry logically disposed between the product generator and the adder supports conventional functionality by providing partial products from the product generator to addend terminals of the adder. The multiplexing circuitry can also be controlled to direct a number of external added inputs to the adder. The additional addend inputs can include inputs and outputs cascaded from other arithmetic circuits.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: 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.
