  • Abstract
    This paper describes the MAX II CPLD architecture. Departing from traditional CPLD product-term logic elements and global routing, it instead employs FPGA-like look-up tables and channel-based routing. It integrates a flash memory for configuration and a voltage regulator for core power flexibility, and delivers 2.9× higher logic density, 2.2× greater performance, and consumes >15× less power in 1/6 the die size of its predecessor, the MAX 7000A.
