Abstract

A memory including various selectively configurable peripherals which provide on-chip low-level control features and a configuration RAM storing bits which both provide unclocked full logic-level outputs to control the selectively configurable peripherals and can also be accessed and read out. That is, each cell in the configuration RAM has two output modes: a digital continuous output, which is provided as a continuous control signal to various peripheral circuits and a selectable analog output which is used to read the information stored in the configuration RAM.
