PRODUCT
SUMMARY
The QL16x24B is a member of the pASIC 1 Family of very-high-speed
CMOS user-programmable ASIC devices. The 384 logic cell field-
programmable gate array (FPGA) offers 4,000 usable ASIC gates
(equivalent to 7,000 PLD gates) of high-performance general-purpose
logic in 84-pin PLCC, 100-pin and 144-pin TQFP, 144-pin CPGA, and
160-pin CQFP.
Low-impedance, metal-to-metal, ViaLink interconnect technology
provides nonvolatile custom logic capable of operating above 150 MHz.
Logic cell delays under 2 ns, combined with input delays of under 1.5 ns
and output delays under 3 ns, permit high-density programmable devices
to be used with today’s fastest microprocessors and DSPs.
Designs can be entered using QuickLogic’s QuickWorks Toolkit or most
populart third-party CAE tools. QuickWorks combines Verilog/VHDL
design entry and simulation tools with device-specific place & route and
programming software. Ample on-chip routing channels allow fast, fully
automatic place and route of designs using up to 100% of the logic and
I/O cells, while maintaining fixed pin-outs.
