Abstract

See full text

In an FPGA having a hierarchical routing structure, additional routing lines are provided which have different destinations for different cells within a block. A pattern is chosen which allows signal lines to turn corners conveniently. In one embodiment having cells arranged into 4.times.4 blocks, cells on the diagonal of a block generate signals which are provided to switches which form one boundary of the block.
