APEX 20KC Programmable Logic Device Data Sheet

The programmable register also supports an asynchronous clear function.

Within the ESB, two asynchronous clears are generated from global

signals and the local interconnect. Each macrocell can either choose

between the two asynchronous clear signals or choose to not be cleared.

Either of the two clear signals can be inverted within the ESB. Figure 15

shows the ESB control logic when implementing product-terms.

Parallel Expanders

Parallel expanders are unused product terms that can be allocated to a

neighboring macrocell to implement fast, complex logic functions.

Parallel expanders allow up to 32 product terms to feed the macrocell OR

logic directly, with two product terms provided by the macrocell and

30 parallel expanders provided by the neighboring macrocells in the ESB.

The Quartus II Compiler can allocate up to 15 sets of up to two parallel

expanders per set to the macrocells automatically. Each set of two parallel

expanders incurs a small, incremental timing delay. Figure 16 shows the

APEX 20KC parallel expanders.
