Abstract:
A selectable-function, logic module, capable of being implemented on a single large-scale integrated (LSI) chip, in which all logical operations, including internal control functions, are performed by read-only associative memory (ROAM) arrays. Such modules, capable of both static combinational logic and sequential logic, may be employed as the basic buildingblocks for large-scale processing systems or subsystems replacing the variety of discrete-function logic devices which would otherwise be employed.
