摘要:
An integrated circuit having a logic element that includes an array of storage elements convertibly functioning as either a configuration random access memory (CRAM) or a static random access memory (SRAM) is provided. The logic element includes first and second pairs of data paths having dedicated multiplexers. In one embodiment, the first and second pairs of data paths are multiplexed into bit lines of a row of the array. The logic element also includes a data path control block generating control signals for each of the dedicated multiplexers. The control signals determine whether the storage elements function as a CRAM or a SRAM. A method for selectively configuring a memory array between a CRAM mode and SRAM mode are provided.

A programmable memory interface circuit includes a programmable DLL delay chain, a phase offset control circuit and a programmable DQS delay chain. The DLL delay chain uses a set of serially connected delay cells, a programmable switch, a phase detector and a digital counter to generate a coarse phase shift control setting. The coarse phase shift control setting is then used to pre-compute a static residual phase shift control setting or generate a dynamic residual phase shift control setting, one of which is chosen by the phase offset control circuit to be added to or subtracted from the coarse phase shift control setting to generate a fine phase shift control setting. The coarse and fine phase shift control settings work in concert to generate a phase-delayed DQS signal that is center-aligned to its associated DQ signals.

A programmable logic device having a Logic Element with an N-stage Look Up Table (LUT), dedicated hardware for performing a non-LUT logic function, and an over-ride element configured to selectively force a muxing stage within the N-stage LUT to select either one or more LUT configuration bit inputs or the output of the non-LUT logic function as the output of the LUT. In various embodiments, the non-LUT functions can include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, digital signal processing, memory storage, etc.

An integrated circuit (IC) having selectable memory elements is provided. The IC includes a logic array block (LAB) disposed within the IC. A plurality of logic elements, having look-up tables functioning as the selectable memory elements is included in the LAB. Within a logic element, a data path that shares multiplexers and drivers when the look-up tables of the logic elements are operated as one of a memory element or a combinational logic device is provided. In addition, a write address decoder is interconnected with the plurality of logic elements through a write bus.

摘要:
A memory block of a programmable device uses a double data rate communication scheme to communicate data with logic cells at a rate of two bits per clock cycle per data line. The memory block can be configured to use the double data rate communication scheme or a single data rate communication scheme. The memory block can switch between either communications scheme as needed to communicate with different portions of the programmable device. If a memory block of a programmable device includes two or more data access ports, an embodiment of a programmable device allows each data access port to be configured for single data rate or double data rate communications independently of other data ports. Any arbitrary logic cell of the programmable device can communicate with a memory block using the double data rate communication scheme by configuring additional logic cells to operate as a double data rate interface.
