Overview

APEXTM 20K devices are the first PLDs designed with the MultiCore architecture, which combines the strengths of LUT-based and productterm-based devices with an enhanced memory structure. LUT-based logic provides optimized performance and efficiency for data-path, registerintensive, mathematical, or digital signal processing (DSP) designs. Product-term-based logic is optimized for complex combinatorial paths, such as complex state machines. LUT- and product-term-based logic combined with memory functions and a wide variety of MegaCore and AMPP functions make the APEX 20K device architecture uniquely suited for system-on-a-programmable-chip designs. Applications historically requiring a combination of LUT-, product-term-, and memory-based devices can now be integrated into one APEX 20K device.
