ispLSI 8000 Family Description
The ispLSI 8000 Family of Register-Intensive, SuperBIG
In-System Programmable Logic Devices is based on Big
Fast Megablocks of 120 registered macrocells and a
Global Routing Plane (GRP) structure interconnecting
the Big Fast Megablocks. Each Big Fast Megablock
contains 120 registered macrocells arranged in six groups
of 20, a group of 20 being referred to as a Generic Logic
Block, or GLB. Within the Big Fast Megablock, a Big Fast
Megablock Routing Pool (BRP) interconnects the six
GLBs to each other and to 24 Big Fast Megablock I/O
