摘要： A programmable logic device (PLD) is provided that supports multi-gigabit transceivers (MGTs). The PLD includes one or more pairs of shared clock pads for receiving one or more high-quality differential clock signals. Dedicated clock traces couple each pair of shared clock pads to one or more MGTs on the PLD. Each MGT includes a clock multiplexer circuit, which allows one of the high-quality differential clock signals to be routed as a reference clock signal for the MGT. The clock multiplexer circuits are designed such that no significant jitter is added to the high-quality clock signals. The clock multiplexer circuits can also route general-purpose clock signals received by the PLD as lower quality reference clock signals for the MGTs. The reference clock signal routed by the clock multiplexer circuit can be stepped down to provide a reference clock for a physical coding sublayer of the MGT.

摘要： A programmable lookup table optionally provides two input signals and two output signals to an interconnect structure of a programmable integrated circuit when programmed to function as a random access memory (RAM). An integrated circuit includes an interconnect structure and a N-input lookup table (LUT) having input and output terminals coupled to the interconnect structure. The LUT can be configured to function as a single-bit wide RAM (e.g., a (2**N)×1 RAM) having N input address signals coupled to the interconnect structure and one output signal coupled to the interconnect structure, or as a multi-bit wide RAM (e.g., a (2**(N−1))×2 RAM) having fewer than N (e.g., N−1) input address signals coupled to the interconnect structure and at least two output signals coupled to the interconnect structure. Optionally, the LUT can also be configured as shift register logic, e.g., a 2**(N−1)-bit shift register or two 2**(N−2)-bit shift registers.

摘要： A programmable logic block provides programmable initialization values for carry chains traversing the logic block, without consuming user logic resources. An exemplary programmable logic block includes two or more carry multiplexers coupled together to form a carry chain for the programmable logic block. A carry initialization circuit has an output terminal coupled to a data input terminal of a first carry multiplexer in the carry chain. The carry initialization circuit is controlled by configuration memory cells of the programmable logic block to select one of a carry in signal, a power high signal, a ground signal, and (optionally) a signal from an interconnect structure of the logic block. Thus, an initialization value (e.g., power high or ground) can be provided to the carry chain without consuming other programmable resources within the logic block.

摘要： A method and apparatus is provided for the implementation of a process monitor vehicle (PMV) for memory cells. The memory cell PMV is useful in characterizing drive strength of the N-type and P-type field effect transistors (FETs) that are used to implement the memory cell. The memory cell PMV may be used, for example, to measure the amount of margin available for memory cell flips and how process variation affects the memory cell write margin. The memory cell PMV is implemented as a plurality of shift register bits interconnected as a ring oscillator, where each shift register bit is comprised of a memory cell. By adjusting the drive current for each memory cell and measuring the resultant change in oscillation frequency of the ring oscillator, information may be obtained concerning process variation and its effect on memory cell performance.

摘要： Circuits that can be optionally programmed to function as lookup tables (LUTs) or wide multiplexers, and integrated circuits including these programmable circuits. A function select multiplexer is included between each memory cell and the corresponding data input terminal of a first multiplexer. Each function select multiplexer has a first data input terminal coupled to the corresponding memory cell, a second data input terminal coupled to an external input terminal, and a select terminal controlled by a value stored in a function select memory cell. When a first value is stored in the function select memory cell, the programmable circuit functions in the same fashion as a known LUT. When a second value is stored in the function select memory cell, the programmable circuit functions as a wide multiplexer, with the data input values being provided by the external input terminals.

摘要： Method and apparatus for regulating voltage within an integrated circuit is described. For example, a voltage regulator receives a first reference voltage and produces a regulated voltage. A comparator includes a first input for receiving a second reference voltage and a second input for receiving the regulated voltage. The comparator includes an offset voltage. The comparator produces a control signal indicative of whether the difference between the second reference voltage and the regulated voltage is greater than a predetermined offset voltage. A clamp circuit clamps the regulated voltage to the second reference voltage in response to the control signal. In another example, the clamp circuit is removed and a multiplexer selects either a first reference voltage or a second reference voltage to be coupled to a voltage regulator. The multiplexer is controlled via output of a comparator that compares the first reference voltage and the second reference voltage.
