F5M and F5X Modes—Special Function Modes
The PFU contains logic to implement two special func-
tion modes which are variations on the F5 mode. As
with the F5 mode, the LUT implements two indepen-
dent five-input functions. Figure 6 and Figure 7 show
the schematics for F5M and F5X modes, respectively.
The F5X and F5M functions differ from the basic F5A/
F5B functions in that there are three logic gates which
have inputs from the two 5-input LUT outputs. In some
cases, this can be used for faster and/or wider logic
functions.
As can be seen, two of the three inputs into the NAND,
XOR, and MUX gates, F0 and F3, are from the LUT.
The third input is from the C0 input into PFU. Since the
C0 input bypasses the LUTs, it has a much smaller
delay through the PFU than for all other inputs into the
special PFU gates. This allows multiple PFUs to be
cascaded together while reducing the delay of the criti-
cal path through the PFUs. The output of the first spe-
cial function (either XOR or MUX) is F1. Since the XOR
and MUX share the F1 output, the F5X and F5M
modes are mutually exclusive. The output of the NAND
PFU gate is F2 and is always available in either mode.
To use either the F5M or F5X functions, the LUT must
be in the F5A/F5B mode; i.e., only 5-input LUTs
allowed. In both the F5X and F5M functions, the out-
puts of the five-input combinatorial functions, F0 and
F3, are also usable simultaneously with the special
PFU gate outputs.
The output of the MUX is:
F1 = (HLUTA & C0) + (HLUTB &
C0
)
F1 = (F3 & C0) + (F0 &
C0
)
The output of the exclusive OR is:
F1 = HLUTA

The output of the NAND is:
