摘要： A megafunction block is provided that includes a serial interface enabling a user to specify settings of a configurable block of a programmable logic device. The megafunction block includes a register array having the capability of translating address information into actual addresses for a memory of the configurable block. Thus, as future configurations/standards are developed that a programmable logic device with the megafunction block will interfaces with, the settings for interfacing with the standards may be added to the register array. Consequently, the pin count will not need to increase as the megafunction block is scalable through the register map. Control logic verifies that the translated address is a valid address and the control logic will generate a selection signal based on whether a read or write operation is to be performed.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are described for efficiently performing EDA processing to arrive at a hardware definition for a varying fraction of a large circuit design. EDA processing is conducted targeting a pseudo hardware device with sufficient capacity to embody circuitry for the varying fraction, but substantially less than the true hardware target. The novel methods and apparatus may be beneficially employed to produce reconfiguration information for circuits that include programmable logic, for example.

摘要： A transceiver system with reduced latency uncertainty is described. In one implementation, the transceiver system has a word aligner latency uncertainty of zero. In another implementation, the transceiver system has a receiver-to-transmitter transfer latency uncertainty of zero. In yet another implementation, the transceiver system has a word aligner latency uncertainty of zero and a receiver-to-transmitter transfer latency uncertainty of zero. In one specific implementation, the receiver-to-transmitter transfer latency uncertainty is eliminated by using the transmitter parallel clock as a feedback signal in the transmitter phase locked loop (PLL). In one implementation, this is achieved by optionally making the transmitter divider, which generates the transmitter parallel clock, part of the feedback path of the transmitter PLL. In one implementation, the word aligner latency uncertainty is eliminated by using a bit slipper to slip bits in such a way so that the total delay due to the word alignment and bit slipping is constant for all phases of the recovered clock. This allows for having a fixed and known latency between the receipt and transmission of bits for all phases of parallelization by the deserializer. In one specific implementation, the total delay due to the bit shifting by the word aligner and the bit slipping by the bit slipper is zero since the bit slipper slips bits so as to compensate for the bit shifting that was performed by the word aligner.

摘要： A memory configuration circuit is provided. The memory configuration circuit may be integrated into a programmable logic device (PLD) and as such, may be used to configure and reconfigure specific elements in the PLD. The memory configuration circuit includes a comparator circuit and a counter. The comparator circuit is coupled to receive two data words from two different memory configuration sources. The comparator circuit compares the two data words received before writing one of the data words to a configuration memory. One of the data words may be written to the configuration memory if the two data words compared are not equal. The counter increments the address of the memory configuration sources so that a next data word can be processed after the current data word is processed.

摘要： A digital phase detector circuit and corresponding monitor and control logic is presented. The digital phase detector has two storage elements, where the data input of the first storage element receives a first clock signal and the data input of the second storage element receives a second clock signal. A time shifter shifts the second clock signal by a shift period, and transmits the shifted signal to the clock input of the storage elements. The signals applied to the data inputs are transmitted from the storage elements when the clock input receives the shifted second clock signal from the time shifter. A monitor and control module samples the data output from the storage elements after each shifted second clock signal is transmitted by the time shifter. The sampling of the output data provides the data used to determine the time relationship between the first and the second clock signals.
