摘要： A programmable logic device includes logic blocks such as a logic array blocks (LAB) that can be configured as a random access memory (RAM) or as a lookup table (LUT). A mode flag is provided to indicate the mode of operation of configuration logic such as a configuration RAM (CRAM) used during partial reconfiguration of a logic block. An enable read flag is provided to indicate if values stored in the configuration logic are to be read out or a known state is to be read out during a data verification process. Thus, exclusion and inclusion of portions of a region of configuration logic from data verification and correction processes allow a region of configuration logic to store both a design state and a user defined state. Moreover, the region of configuration logic may be dynamically reconfigured from one state to another without causing verification errors.

摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed for securing a programmable integrated circuit device against an over-voltage attack. Generally, programmable devices, such as FPGAs, contain volatile memory registers that may store sensitive information. To prevent tampering and/or reverse engineering of such a programmable device, an over-voltage detection circuit may be employed to disable the device and/or erase the sensitive information stored on the device when an over-voltage attack is suspected. In particular, once the over-voltage detection circuit detects that the voltage applied to the programmable device exceeds a trigger voltage, it may cause logic circuitry to erase the sensitive information stored on the device. Desirably, the over-voltage detection circuit includes components arranged in such a way as to render current consumption negligible when the voltage applied to the programmable device, e.g., by a battery, remains below the trigger voltage.

摘要： Memory elements are provided that exhibit immunity to soft error upset events when subjected to high-energy atomic particle strikes. The memory elements may each have ten transistors including two address transistors and four transistor pairs that are interconnected to form a bistable element. Clear lines such as true and complement clear lines may be routed to positive power supply terminals and ground power supply terminals associated with certain transistor pairs. During clear operations, some or all of the transistor pairs can be selectively depowered using the clear lines. This facilitates clear operations in which logic zero values are driven through the address transistors and reduces cross-bar current surges.

摘要： Partial reconfiguration techniques and reconfiguration circuitry are provided that allow portions of a memory cell array to be reconfigured with new reconfiguration data without disturbing other portions of the memory cell array. The memory cells may be loaded with configuration data on an integrated circuit such as a programmable logic device. Memory cell outputs may configure programmable logic. To avoid disturbing programmable logic operations for programmable logic that is unaffected by the reconfigured cells during reconfiguration, unaffected memory cells are not unnecessarily cleared. Only those memory cells that need to be cleared to conform to the new configuration data that is being loaded into the array need to be loaded with logic zero values during reconfiguration operations. After these clearing operations are complete, set operations may be performed to convert appropriate memory cells to logic one values to match the new configuration data.

摘要： A macrocell for a programmable logic device includes circuitry for allowing a neighboring macrocell to borrow various numbers of the product terms of the macrocell. The macrocell can continue to make full use of its product terms that are not thus borrowed. This includes logically combining and registering the unborrowed product terms. The macrocell may include circuitry for feeding back to the AND array of the programmable logic device a combinatorial or registered signal of the macrocell, and also outputting such a combinatorial or registered signal from the macrocell. When a combinatorial signal is fed back, the register of the macrocell can be used for another signal of the macrocell.

摘要： A programmable logic device is presented comprising a global interconnect array whose lines are fed via programmable multiplexers to logic array blocks. The global interconnect array lines are fed to the multiplexers in a specific pattern which maximizes the user's ability to route a selected line to the output of a selected multiplexer, while at the same time maintaining higher speed and lower power consumption, and using less chip array than prior art programmable logic devices using programmable interconnect arrays based on erasable programmable read-only memories.
