Features...
s
Industry’s first programmable logic device (PLD) incorporating
system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) integration
–MultiCoreTM architecture integrating look-up table (LUT) logic,
product-term logic, and embedded memory
–
LUT logic used for register-intensive functions
–
Embedded system block (ESB) used to implement memory
functions, including first-in first-out (FIFO) buffers, dual-port
RAM, and content-addressable memory (CAM)
–
ESB implementation of product-term logic used for
combinatorial-intensive functions
s
High density
–
30,000 to 1.5 million typical gates (see
Tables 1 and
2)–
Up to 51,840 logic elements (LEs)
–
Up to 442,368 RAM bits that can be used without reducing
available logic
–
Up to 3,456 product-term-based macrocells
