  12. CLB CLB Switch Matrix Switch Matrix CLB CLB Xilinx FPGA Routing • 1) Fast Direct Interconnect - CLB to CLB • 2) General Purpose Interconnect - Uses switch matrix • 3) Long Lines • Segmented across chip • Global clocks, lowest skew • 2 Tri-states per CLB for busses • Other routing types in CPLDs and XC6200

  13. Other FPGA Resources • Tri-state buffers for busses (BUFT’s) • Global clock & high speed buffers (BUFG’s) • Wide Decoders (DECODEx) • Internal Oscillator (OSC4) • Global Reset to all Flip-Flops, Latches (STARTUP) • CLB special resources • Fast Carry logic built into CLBs • Synchronous Dual Port RAM • Boundary Scan

  19. CPLD or FPGA? • FPGA • SRAM reconfiguration • Excellent for computer architecture, DSP, registered designs • ASIC like design flow • Great for first year to graduate work • More common in schools • PROM required for non-volatile operation • CPLD • Non-volatile • JTAG Testing • Wide fan-in • Fast counters, state machines • Combinational Logic • Small student projects, lower level courses
