摘要:
An input/output architecture for a field-programmable gate array integrated circuit including a plurality of logic function modules in an array of rows and columns, each of the modules having at least one input conductor and at least one output conductor; a plurality of interconnect conductors, comprising a plurality of input/output pads; a plurality of input/output kernels, each input/output kernel comprising an input buffer having a data input connected to one of the I/O pads and a data output connected to an input buffer data conductor, an output buffer having a data input connected to an output buffer data conductor, a data output connected to the I/O pad, and an enable input connected to an output buffer enable conductor; the input buffer data conductors extending in either the row or the column direction, different ones of the input buffer data conductors extending different numbers of rows or columns, the input buffer data conductors forming first intersections with inputs of the modules; the output buffer data conductors and output buffer enable conductors extending in either the row or the column direction, different ones of the output buffer data conductors and output buffer enable conductors extending different numbers of rows or columns, the input buffer data conductors forming second intersections with outputs of the modules; and user-programmable interconnect elements connected across selected ones of the first and second intersections.

A user-programmable gate array architecture includes an array of logic function modules which may comprise one or more combinatorial and/or sequential logic circuits. An interconnect architecture comprising a plurality of horizontal and vertical general interconnect channels, each including a plurality of interconnect conductors some of which may be segmented, is imposed on the array. Individual ones of the interconnect conductors are connectable to each other and to the inputs and outputs of the logic function modules by user-programmable interconnect elements. A local interconnect architecture comprising local interconnect channels is also imposed on the array. Each local interconnect channel includes a plurality of local interconnect conductors and runs between pairs of adjacent ones of the logic function modules.

An enhanced performance field programmable gate array integrated circuit comprises a field programmable gate array and other functional circuitry such as a mask-programmable gate array in the same integrated circuit. A circuit interface provides communication between the field programmable gate array, the mask-programmable gate array and the integrated circuit I/O.
