The new 3-LUT based logic cell circuit increases logic density about 11% compared with a traditional 4-input LUT. The unique hierarchy routing fabrics and effective switch box optimize the routing wire segments and make it possible for different lengths to connect directly. The FDP contains 1,600 programmable logic cells, 160 programmable I/O, and 16kbit dual port block RAM. Its die size is 6. 104mm× 6. 620mm, with the package of QFP208. The hardware and software cooperation tests indicate that FDP chip works correctly and efficiently.展开更多

As technology scales, the issue will be more serious. In order to tackle this issue, two different error correcting codes(ECCs), the shortened Hamming codes and shortened BCH codes, are investigated in this paper. The concrete design methods of the codes are presented. Also, the codes are both implemented in flash-based FPGAs. Finally, the synthesis report and simulation results are presented in the paper. Moreover, heavy-ion experiments are performed,and the experimental results indicate that the error cross-section of the device using the shortened Hamming codes can be reduced by two orders of magnitude compared with the device without mitigation, and no errors are discovered in the experiments for the device using the shortened BCH codes.展开更多
