DEVICE FOR FPSA AND ITS DESIGN METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively design a FPSA device in a short time by preventing the prolongation of a design time and a redesign time due to an additional function. ;SOLUTION: This FPSA device comprises a plurality of basic cells 2 to be a sequencer, the basic cells 2 having a sequence table 11 that has a preset number of slots to store simple commands, and has a structure where these basic cells 2 are connected by a network circuit. The device for this FPSA comprises a clock multiplying circuit for generating an internal clock that is an external clock multiplied by an arbitrary number, a means for processing one command assigned in each basic cell 2 in one period of the internal clock, a means for processing in accordance with a command row by making the sequence table 11 of each basic cell 2 hold the command row comprising a plurality of commands, an arithmetic memory part 13 for holding an arithmetic result of each basic cell 2, and a means for programming the multiplication number of the clock and the sequence table 11.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
