Spartan-3E FPGA Family: Functional Description
By contrast, the clock switch matrixes on the top and bottom
edges receive signals from any of the five following sources:
two GCLK pins, two DCM outputs, or one Double-Line
interconnect.
The four BUFGMUX elements on the top edge are paired
together and share inputs from the eight global clock inputs
along the top edge. Each BUFGMUX pair connects to four
of the eight global clock inputs, as shown in Figure 45. This
optionally allows differential inputs to the global clock inputs
without wasting a BUFGMUX element.
Table 41 indicates permissible connections between clock
inputs and BUFGMUX elements. The I0-input provides the
best input path to a clock buffer. The I1-input provides the
secondary input for the clock multiplexer function.

Notes:
1. See Quadrant Clock Routing for connectivity details for the eight quadrant clocks.
2. See Figure 45 for specific BUFGMUX locations, and Figure 47 for information on how BUFGMUX elements drive onto a specific clock line
within a quadrant.
