Patent ID: 10686447

Abstract:
An integrated circuit comprising an FPGA including programmable/configurable logic circuitry having a periphery, wherein resources (e.g., memory (e.g., high-speed local RAM), one or more busses, and/or circuitry external to the FPGA (e.g., a processor, a controller and/or system/external memory), is/are disposed outside the periphery of the programmable/configurable logic circuitry which includes a plurality of logic tiles, wherein at least one logic tile is located completely within the interior of the periphery and wherein each logic tile of the array of logic tiles includes a plurality of I/Os located on the perimeter of the logic tile wherein a first portion of the I/Os are located on a perimeter of the logic tile that is interior to the periphery, and the first portion of I/Os of each logic tile of the plurality of the logic tiles are directly connected to the bus to provide communication between the resources and the logic tiles.
