摘要： A multiplier-accumulator (MAC) block can be programmed to operate in one or more modes. When the MAC block implements at least one multiply-and-accumulate operation, the accumulator value can be zeroed without introducing clock latency or initialized in one clock cycle. To zero the accumulator value, the most significant bits (MSBs) of data representing zero can be input to the MAC block and sent directly to the add-subtract-accumulate unit. Alternatively, dedicated configuration bits can be set to clear the contents of a pipeline register for input to the add-subtract-accumulate unit.

摘要： A programmable logic integrated circuit device has at least one function-specific circuit block (e.g., a parallel multiplier, a parallel barrel shifter, a parallel arithmetic logic unit, etc.) in addition to the usual multiple regions of programmable logic and the usual programmable interconnection circuit resources. To reduce the impact of use of the function-specific block (“FSB”) on the general purpose interconnection resources of the device, inputs and/or outputs of the FSB may be coupled relatively directly to a subset of the logic regions. In addition to conserving general purpose interconnect, resources of the logic regions to which the FSB are connected can be used by the FSB to reduce the amount of circuitry that must be dedicated to the FSB. If the FSB is a multiplier, additional features include facilitating accumulation of successive multiplier outputs (using either addition or subtraction and with sign extension if desired) and/or arithmetically combining the outputs of multiple multipliers.
摘要翻译：可编程逻辑集成电路器件除了可编程逻辑的通常多个区域和通常的可编程逻辑器件之外，还具有至少一个功能特定电路块（例如，并行乘法器，并行桶形移位器，并行算术逻辑单元等）互联电路资源。为了减少使用功能特定块（“FSB”）对设备的通用互连资源的影响，FSB的输入和/或输出可以相对直接地耦合到逻辑区域的子集。除了节省通用互连之外，FSB可以使用FSB连接的逻辑区域的资源，以减少必须专用于FSB的电路的数量。如果FSB是乘法器，则附加特征包括促进连续乘法器输出的累积（如果需要，使用加法或减法和符号扩展）和/或算术组合多个乘法器的输出。

摘要： Circuits, methods, and apparatus that prevent detection and erasure of encoding or encryption keys. These encoding keys may be used to encode a configuration bitstream or other data for an FPGA or other device. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention masks a first key to form an encoding key in order to prevent detection of the first key. In a specific embodiment, the first key is encoded using a second key. The encoded key is used to encode a configuration bitstream or other data. The encoded key is stored on an FPGA or other device. When the device is to be configured, the encoded key is retrieved and used to decode the bitstream or other data. A further embodiment stores an encryption key in a one-time programmable memory (OTP) array to prevent its erasure or modification. The encoding key may be further obfuscated before storage.

To zero the accumulator value, the most significant bits (MSBs) of data representing zero can be input to the MAC block and sent directly to the add-subtract-accumulate unit. Alternatively, dedicated configuration bits can be set to clear the contents of a pipeline register for input to the add-subtract-accumulate unit. The least significant bits (LSBs) can be tied to ground and sent along the feedback path. To initialize the accumulator value, the MSBs of the initialization value can be input to the MAC block and sent directly to the add-subtract-accumulate unit. The LSBs can be sent to another multiplier that performs a multiply-by-one operation before being sent to the add-subtract-accumulate unit.

摘要： A programmable logic device includes, in addition to the usual regions of programmable logic and the programmable interconnect, at least one region of memory which has multiple independently usable write and/or read ports (e.g., two write ports and two read ports). Every memory cell in the memory region is accessible from any of these ports. This enables the memory region to be used to provide either one relatively large memory or two somewhat smaller memories, each occupying a fraction of the full memory. In the latter case, the two memories provided can have any of many different sizes relative to one another. Many different modes or combinations of modes of operating the memory region or parts of the memory region are possible.
