  • Patent number: 8076955
    Abstract: The configurable logic device comprises a plurality of configurable logic cells (2). A configurable logic cell comprises a plurality of multi-bit registers (20a, 20b, 20c, 20d). At least one is accessible both in a parallel and in a serial fashion. A functional unit (30) therein is coupled to two or more of the registers and comprises a chain of functional unit segments (31, 31?) that each comprise an AND gate (33) and a 1-bit full adder (32) receiving an output of the AND-gate. An output selection facility (50) provides an output signal of the configurable logic cell selected from two or more input signals. At least one of the input signals is provided by one of the multi-bit registers, and another by the functional unit.

  • Patent number: 7795912
    Abstract: An integrated circuit comprises a matrix (10) of programmable cells (100). Each particular one of the programmable cells (100) comprises a programmable logic circuit (22) and a bank (24) of routing multiplexers (25a-d). Each routing multiplexer (25a-d) in the bank (24) has a set of inputs connected to connections selected from a group consisting of connections to an output of the programmable logic circuit (22) and connections dedicated to outputs of routing multiplexers (25a-d) in further ones of the programmable cells (100) other than the particular one of the programmable cells (100). The further ones of the programmable cells (100) the inputs of the routing multiplexer (25a-d) in the bank (24) are connected to are positioned relative to the particular one of the programmable cells (100) in the matrix (10) in neighboring cells (100) of the particular one of the programmable cells (100) and in cells (100) beyond the neighboring cells (100).
