QuickWorks Design Software
The QuickWorks® package provides the most complete ESP and FPGA software solution from design entry
to logic synthesis, to place and route, to power calculation, and simulation. The package provides a solution
for designers who use third-party tools from Cadence, Mentor, OrCAD, Synopsys, Viewlogic, and other third-
party tools for design entry, synthesis, or simulation.

Eclipse-E Family Data Sheet Rev. A
The Eclipse-E logic cell structure presented in
Figure 2
is a dual register, multiplexor-based logic cell. It is
designed for wide fan-in and multiple, simultaneous output functions. Both registers share CLK, SET, and
RESET inputs. The second register has a two-to-one multiplexer controlling its input. The register can be
loaded from the NZ output or directly from a dedicated input.
NOTE:
The input PP is not an “input” in the classical sense. It is a static input to the logic cell and selects
which path (NZ or PS) is used as an input to the Q2Z register. All other inputs are dynamic and can be
connected to multiple routing channels.
The complete logic cell consists of two six-input AND gates, four two-input AND gates, seven two-to-one
multiplexers, and two D flip-flops with asynchronous SET and RESET controls. The cell has a fan-in of 30
(including register control lines), fits a wide range of functions with up to 17 simultaneous inputs, and has six
outputs (four combinatorial and two registered). The high logic capacity and fan-in of the logic cell
accommodates many user functions with a single level of logic delay while other architectures require two or
more levels of delay.

RAM Modules
The Eclipse-E family includes up to 24 dual-port 2,304-bit RAM modules for implementing RAM, ROM, and
FIFO functions. Each module is user-configurable into four different block organizations and can be cascaded
horizontally to increase their effective width, or vertically to increase their effective depth as shown in
Figure 4.

Using the two “mode” pins, designers can configure each module into 128 x 18 and 256 x 9. The blocks are
also easily cascadable to increase their effective width and/or depth (see
Figure 4
)
.

RDATA
The RAM modules are dual-port, with completely independent READ and WRITE ports and separate READ
and WRITE clocks. The READ ports support asynchronous and synchronous operation, while the WRITE
ports support synchronous operation. Each port has 18 data lines and 8 address lines, allowing word lengths
of up to 18 bits and address spaces of up to 256 words. Depending on the mode selected, however, some
higher order data or address lines may not be used.
The Write Enable (WE) line acts as a clock enable for synchronous write operation. The Read Enable (RE) acts
as a clock enable for synchronous READ operation (ASYNCRD input low), or as a flow-through enable for
asynchronous READ operation (ASYNCRD input high).
Designers can cascade multiple RAM modules to increase the depth or width allowed in single modules by
connecting corresponding address lines together and dividing the words between modules.
A similar technique can be used to create depths greater than 256 words. In this case address signals higher
than the MSB are encoded onto the write enable (WE) input for WRITE operations. The READ data outputs
are multiplexed together using encoded higher READ address bits for the multiplexer SELECT signals.
The RAM blocks can be loaded with data generated internally (typically for RAM or FIFO functions) or with
data from an external PROM (typically for ROM functions).

Embedded Computational Unit (ECU)
Traditional Programmable Logic architectures do not implement arithmetic functions efficiently or effectively—
these functions require high logic cell usage while garnering only moderate performance results.
The Eclipse-E architecture allows for functionality above and beyond that achievable using programmable logic
devices. By embedding a dynamically reconfigurable computational unit, the Eclipse-E device can address
various arithmetic functions efficiently. This approach offers greater performance and utilization than
traditional programmable logic implementations. The embedded block is implemented at the transistor level
as shown in
Figure 5.

Up to twelve 8-bit MAC functions can be implemented per cycle for a total of up to 1.2 billion MACs/s when
clocked at 100 MHz. Additional multiply-accumulate functions can be implemented in the programmable logic.
