Abstract
A field programmable gate array includes a programmable routing network, a programmable configuration network integrated with the programmable routing network; and a plurality of logic cells ("modules") integrated with the programmable configuration network. Each logic cell is a powerful general purpose universal logic building block. Each logic cell consists essentially of four two-input AND gates, one or two six-input AND gates, three multiplexers, and a D-type flipflop.
