The Xilinx Spartan 3 FPGA EGRE 631 2/2/09
2
Basic types of FPGA’s One time programmable Reprogrammable (non-volatile) –Retains program when powered down SRAM-based reprogramable –Must be reprogrammed each time powered up –This is usually accomplished by using a small serial PROM. –The Nexys 2 board contains a Xilinx Spartan 3E FPGA
3
Spartan-3E Architecture Fundamental Elements Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) –Consists of RAM based look up table to implement logic and storage elements that can be used as flip-flops or latches. Input Output Blocks (IOBs) –Controls the flow of data between IO pins and internal logic. Supports many different signal standards. (Tri- state, bidirectional, LVTTL, etc. Block RAM (BRAM) 18 bit Multiplier Blocks Digital Clock Manager (DCM)

Spartan 3 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLB’s) CLBs contain Ram based lookup tables to implement logic and storage elements that can be used as flip-flops or latches. CLBs can be programmed to perform a wide variety of logic functions as well as store data.
9
Spartan 3E IO Blocks (IOB’s) IOB’s control flow of data between IO pins and the internal logic. Each IOB supports bidirectional data flow, 3-state operation, and numerous different signal standards. (We will typically use LVTTL). See data sheet.
