Abstract :
To meet the needs of ever demanding customers, today´s Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) must provide both features and performance. A new FPGA architecture is presented that provides solutions to both of these requirements. Patented active repeater technology provides predictable high-performance (1996). Standard features are enhanced by the inclusion of analog PLLs, dual port SRAMs and the ability to interface to multiple I/O interface standards
