The pASIC 1 Family of very-high-speed CMOS user-programmable ASIC (pASIC) devices is based on the first FPGA technology to combine high speed, high density and low power in a single architecture. pASIC 1 devices range in density from 1,000 to 8,000 usable ASIC gates, equivalent to 2,000 to 14,000 usable programmable (PLD) gates.
All pASIC 1 devices are based on an array of highly flexible logic cells which have been optimized for efficient implementation of high-speed arithmetic, counter, data path, state machine, random and glue logic functions. Logic cells are configured and interconnected by rows and columns of routing metal and ViaLink metal-to-metal programmable-via interconnect elements.
ViaLink technology provides a nonvolatile, permanently programmed custom logic function capable of operating at counter speeds of over 150 MHz. Internal logic cell nominal worst case delays are under 2 ns and total input to output combinatorial logic delays are under 8 ns. This permits high-density programmable devices to be used with today's fastest microprocessors, while consuming a fraction of the power and board area of PAL/GAL, CPLD and discrete logic solutions.
Designs can be entered on PC or workstation platforms using either QuickLogic's QuickWorks toolkit or a variety of popular third-party design-entry, logic synthesis and simulation tools. The QuickWorks toolkit provides design entry (VHDL, Verilog and schematic), place and route, timing analysis, simulation and programming for all QuickLogic devices. The pASIC 1 architecture provides sufficient on-chip routing to allow fully automatic place and route of designs using up to 100% of the available logic cells.
