Integration of high-speed serial interface circuitry into programmable logic device architectures
The architecture of a programmable logic device (“PLD”) is modified in one or more of several respects to facilitate inclusion of high-speed serial interface (“HSSI”) circuitry in the PLD. For example, the HSSI circuitry is preferably located along one side of the device, taking the place of regular peripheral IO circuitry in that area. Certain portions of the core logic circuitry are modified to better interface with the HSSI circuitry.
