INTRODUCTION
The UT4090 RadHard Field Programmable Gate Array
(FPGA) offers 90,000 usable PLD gates of logic in
combination with Dual-Port SRAM modules. It is
fabricated on 0.35µm four-layer metal CMOS process. The
UT4090 contains 1,584 logic cells and 22 dual port RAM
modules (see Figure 1). Each RAM module has 1,152 RAM
bits, for a total of 25,344 bits. RAM modules are Dual Port
(one read port, one write port) and can be configured into
one of four modes: 64 (deep) x 18(wide), 128x9, 256x4, or
512x2 (see Figure 2). The UT4090 is available in a 208-pin
Cerquad Flatpack, allowing access to 166 bidirectional
signal I/O, 8 high drive inputs, and 5 JTAG IK/O.
Designers can cascade multiple RAM modules to increase
the depth or width allowed in single modules by connecting
corresponding address lines together and dividing the words
between modules (see Figure 3). This approach allows a
variety of address depths and word widths to be tailored to
a specific application.
Aeroflex UTMC uses QuickLogic Corporation’s licensed
ESP (Embedded Standard Products) technology for the
UT4090. QuickLogic is a pioneer in the FPGA
semiconductor and the software tools field.

Software support for the UT4090 is available from QuickLogic.
The turnkey QuickWorks
TM
package provides the most com-
plete software solution from design entry to logic synthesis,
place and route, simulation and static timing analysis. The
QuickTools
TM
for Workstations package provides a solution
for designers who use Cadence, Exemplar, Mentor, Synopsys,
Synplicity, Viewlogic, Veribest or other third-party tools for
design entry, synthesis or simulation. Please visit Quick Log-
ic’s website at www.quicklogic.com for more information.
The UT4090 variable grain logic cell features up to 16 simulta-
neous inputs and 5 outputs within a cell that can be fragmented
into 5 independent cells. Each cell has a fan-in of 29 including
register and control lines (see Figure 5).
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
I/O Pins
• 308 bi-directional input/output pins, PCI-compliant for 5V
and 3.3V buses (see Figure 4)
• 8 high-drive input distributed network pins
Distributed Networks
• Two array clock/control networks available to the logic cell
flip-flop clock, set and reset inputs - each driven by an input-
only pin
• Six global clock/control networks available to the logic cell
F1, flip-flop clock, set and reset inputs and the input and I/O
register clock, reset and enable inputs, as well as the output
enable control - each driven by an input-only or I/O pin, or
any logic cell output, or I/O cell feedback.
Performance
• Input + logic cell + output total delays under 12ns
