Logic Modules

Actel's Axcelerator family provides two types of logic

modules: the register cell (R-cell) and the combinatorial

cell (C-cell). The

can implement more than 4,000 combinatorial functions

of up to five inputs (Figure 1-3 on page 1-3).

The R-cell contains a flip-flop featuring asynchronous

clear, asynchronous preset, and active-low enable control

signals (Figure 1-3 on page 1-3). The R-cell registers

feature programmable clock polarity selectable on a

basis.

This

provides

additional

flexibility (e.g., easy mapping of dual-data-rate functions

into the FPGA) while conserving valuable clock resources.

The clock source for the R-cell can be chosen from the

hardwired clocks, routed clocks, or internal logic.

Two C-cells, a single R-cell, and two Transmit (TX) and two

Receive (RX) routing buffers form a Cluster, while two

Clusters comprise a SuperCluster (Figure 1-4 on page 1-3).

Each SuperCluster also contains an independent Buffer (B)

module, which supports buffer insertion on high-fanout

nets by the place-and-route tool, minimizing system

delays while improving logic utilization.

The logic modules within the SuperCluster are arranged

so that two combinatorial modules are side-by-side,

giving a C–C–R – C–C–R pattern to the SuperCluster. This

C–C–R

pattern

enables

efficient

implementation

(minimum delay) of two-bit carry logic for improved

arithmetic performance (Figure 1-5 on page 1-3).

The AX architecture is fully fracturable, meaning that if

one or more of the logic modules in a SuperCluster are

used by a particular signal path, the other logic modules

are still available for use by other paths.

At the chip level, SuperClusters are organized into core

tiles, which are arrayed to build up the full chip. For

example, the AX1000 is composed of a 3x3 array of nine

core tiles. Surrounding the array of core tiles are blocks

of I/O Clusters and the I/O bank ring (Table 1-1 on

page 1-3). Each core tile consists of an array of 336

SuperClusters and four SRAM blocks (176 SuperClusters

and three SRAM blocks for the AX250). The SRAM blocks

are arranged in a column on the west side of the tile

(Figure 1-6 on page 1-4).
