ORCA Series 2 FPGAs

ORCA Foundry Development System

Overview

The ORCA Foundry Development System interfaces to

front-end design entry tools and provides the tools to

produce a configured FPGA. In the design flow, the

user defines the functionality of the FPGA at two

points: at design entry and at the bit stream generation

stage.

Following design entry, the development system’s map,

place, and route tools translate the netlist into a routed

FPGA. Its bit stream generator is then used to generate

the configuration data which is loaded into the FPGA’s

internal configuration RAM. When using the bit stream

generator, the user selects options that affect the func-

tionality of the FPGA. Combined with the front-end

tools, ORCA Foundry produces configuration data that

implements the various logic and routing options dis-

cussed in this data sheet.

binatorial mode, the LUTs can realize any four-, five-,

or six-input logic functions. In ripple mode, the high-

speed carry logic is used for arithmetic functions, the

new multiplier function, or the enhanced data path

functions. In memory mode, the LUTs can be used as a

16 x 4 read/write or read-only memory (asynchronous

mode or the new synchronous mode) or a new 16 x 2

dual-port memory.

Programmable Logic Cells

The programmable logic cell (PLC) consists of a pro-

grammable function unit (PFU) and routing resources.

All PLCs in the array are identical. The PFU, which con-

tains four LUTs and four latches/FFs for logic imple-

mentation, is discussed in the next section.

Programmable Function Unit

Architecture

The ORCA Series FPGA is comprised of two basic

elements: PLCs and PICs. Figure 1 shows an array of

programmable logic cells (PLCs) surrounded by pro-

grammable input/output cells (PICs). The Series 2 has

PLCs arranged in an array of 20 rows and 20 columns.

PICs are located on all four sides of the FPGA between

the PLCs and the IC edge.

The location of a PLC is indicated by its row and col-

umn so that a PLC in the second row and third column

is R2C3. PICs are indicated similarly, with PT (top) and

PB (bottom) designating rows and PL (left) and PR

(right) designating columns, followed by a number. The

routing resources and configuration RAM are not

shown, but the interquad routing blocks (hIQ, vIQ)

present in the Series 2 series are shown.

Each PIC contains the necessary I/O buffers to inter-

face to bond pads. The PICs also contain the routing

resources needed to connect signals from the bond

pads to/from PLCs. The PICs do not contain any user-

accessible logic elements, such as flip-flops.

Combinatorial logic is done in look-up tables (LUTs)

located in the PFU. The PFU can be used in different

modes to meet different logic requirements. The LUT’s

configurable medium-/large-grain architecture can be

used to implement from one to four combinatorial logic

functions. The flexibility of the LUT to handle wide input

functions, as well as multiple smaller input functions,

maximizes the gate count/PFU.

The LUTs can be programmed to operate in one of

three modes: combinatorial, ripple, or memory. In com-

The PFUs are used for logic. Each PFU has 19 exter-

nal inputs and six outputs and can operate in several

modes. The functionality of the inputs and outputs

depends on the operating mode.

The PFU uses three input data buses (A[4:0], B[4:0],

WD[3:0]), four control inputs (C0, CK, CE, LSR), and a

carry input (CIN); the last is used for fast arithmetic

functions. There is a 5-bit output bus (O[4:0]) and a

carry-out (COUT).
