General Description
The Quantum38K family, based on a 0.18-µm, 6-layer metal
CMOS logic process, offers a wide range of solutions at very
high system performance. With devices ranging from 256 to
1536 macrocells, Quantum38K is the highest density CPLD in
the market besides Cypress’s Delta39K. Specifically designed
to address low-cost applications, this family also integrates
Cypress’s dual-port memory technology onto a CPLD.
The architecture is based on Logic Block Clusters (LBC) that
are connected by Horizontal and Vertical (H&V) routing chan-
nels. Each LBC features eight individual Logic Blocks (LB).
Adjacent to each LBC is a channel memory block, which can
be accessed directly from the I/O pins. These channel memory
blocks are highly configurable and can be cascaded in width
and depth. See
Figure 1
for a block diagram of the
Quantum38K architecture.
All the members of the Quantum38K family have Cypress’s
highly regarded In-System Reprogrammability (ISR) feature,
which simplifies both design and manufacturing flows, thereby
reducing costs. The ISR feature provides the ability to recon-
figure the devices without having design changes cause pi-
nout or timing changes in most cases. The Cypress ISR func-
tion is implemented through a JTAG-compliant serial interface.
Data is shifted in and out through the TDI and TDO pins re-
spectively. Superior routability, simple timing, and the ISR al-
lows users to change existing logic designs while simulta-
neously fixing pinout assignments and maintaining system
performance.
The entire family features JTAG for ISR and boundary scan,
and is compatible with the PCI Local Bus specification, meet-
ing the electrical and timing requirements. The Quantum38K
family also features user programmable bus-hold and slew
rate control capabilities on each I/O pin.
AnyVolt Interface
Quantum38K™ ISR™
CPLD Family
All Quantum38K devices feature an on-chip regulator, which
accepts 3.3V or 2.5V on the V
CC
supply pins and steps it down
to 1.8V internally, the voltage level at which the core operates.
With Quantum38K’s AnyVolt technology, the I/O pins can be
connected to either 1.8V 2.5V, or 3.3V. All Quantum38K devic-
es are 3.3V tolerant regardless of V
CCIO
or V
CC
settings.

Global Routing Description
The routing architecture of the Quantum38K is made up of
horizontal and vertical (H&V) routing channels. These routing
channels allow signals from each of the Quantum38K archi-
tectural components to communicate with one another. In ad-
dition to the horizontal and vertical routing channels that inter-
connect the I/O banks, channel memory blocks, and logic
block clusters, each LBC contains a Programmable Intercon-
nect Matrix (PIM™), which is used to route signals among the
logic blocks.
Figure 2
is a block diagram of the routing channels that inter-
face within the Quantum38K architecture. The LBC is exactly
the same for every member of the Quantum38K CPLD family.
Logic Block Cluster (LBC)
The Quantum38K architecture consists of several logic block
clusters, each of which have 8 Logic Blocks (LB) connected
via a Programmable Interconnect Matrix (PIM) as shown in
Figure 3.
All LBCs interface with each other via horizontal and
vertical routing channels.

Logic Block (LB)
The logic block is the basic building block of the Quantum38K
architecture. It consists of a product term array, an intelligent
product-term allocator, and 16 macrocells.
Product Term Array
Each logic block features a 72 x 83 programmable product
term array. This array accepts 36 inputs from the PIM. These
inputs originate from device pins and macrocell feedbacks as
well as channel memory feedbacks. Active LOW and active
HIGH versions of each of these inputs are generated to create
the full 72-input field. The 83 product terms in the array can be
created from any of the 72 inputs.
Of the 83 product terms, 80 are for general-purpose use for
the 16 macrocells in the logic block. Two of the remaining three
product terms in the logic block are used as asynchronous set
and asynchronous reset product terms. The final product term
is the Product Term clock (PTCLK) and is shared by all 16
macrocells within a logic block.
Product Term Allocator
Through the product term allocator,
Warp
software automati-
cally distributes the 80 product terms as needed among the 16
macrocells in the logic block. The product term allocator pro-
vides two important capabilities without affecting performance:
product term steering and product term sharing.
Product Term Steering
Product term steering is the process of assigning product
terms to macrocells as needed. For example, if one macrocell
requires ten product terms while another needs just three, the
product term allocator will “steer” ten product terms to one
Document #: 38-03043 Rev. **
Page 5 of 32
macrocell and three to the other. On Quantum38K devices,
product terms are steered on an individual basis. Any number
between 1and 16 product terms can be steered to any macro-
cell.
Product Term Sharing
Product term sharing is the process of using the same product
term among multiple macrocells. For example, if more than
one function has one or more product terms in its equation that
are common to other functions, those product terms are only
programmed once. The Quantum38K product term allocator
allows sharing across groups of four macrocells in a variable
fashion. The software automatically takes advantage of this
capability so that the user does not have to intervene.
Note that neither product term sharing nor product term steer-
ing have any effect on the speed of the product. All steering
and sharing configurations have been incorporated in the tim-
ing specifications for the Quantum38K devices.
