The MACH435 is a member of our high-performance
EE CMOS MACH 4 family. This device has approximately twelve times the macrocell capability of the
popular PAL22V10, with significant density and functional features that the PAL22V10 does not provide.
The MACH435 consists of eight PAL blocks interconnected by a programmable central switch matrix. The
central switch matrix connects the PAL blocks to each
other and to all input pins, providing a high degree of
connectivity between the fully-connected PAL blocks.
This allows designs to be placed and routed efficiently.
Routability is further enhanced by an input switch matrix
and an output switch matrix. The input switch matrix
provides input signals with alternative paths into the
central switch matrix; the output switch matrix provides
flexibility in assigning macrocells to I/O pins.
The MACH435 has macrocells that can be configured
as synchronous or asynchronous. This allows designers
to implement both synchronous and asynchronous logic
■ Flexible clocking
— Four global clock pins with selectable edges
— Asynchronous mode available for each
macrocell
■ 8 “PAL33V16” blocks
■ Input and output switch matrices for high
routability
■ Fixed, predictable, deterministic delays
■ Pin compatible with MACH130, MACH131,
MACH230, and MACH231
together on the same device. The two types of design
can be mixed in any proportion, since the selection on
each macrocell affects only that macrocell.
Up to 20 product terms per function can be assigned. It
is possible to allocate some product terms away from a
macrocell without losing the use of that macrocell for
logic generation.
The MACH435 macrocell provides either registered or
combinatorial outputs with programmable polarity. If a
registered configuration is chosen, the register can be
configured as D-type, T-type, J-K, or S-R to help reduce
the number of product terms used. The flip-flop can also
be configured as a latch. The register type decision can
be made by the designer or by the software.
All macrocells can be connected to an I/O cell through
the output switch matrix. The output switch matrix
makes it possible to make significant design changes
while minimizing the risk of pinout changes.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The MACH435 consists of eight PAL blocks connected
by a central switch matrix. There are 64 I/O pins and 6
dedicated input pins feeding the central switch matrix.
These signals are distributed to the eight PAL blocks for
efficient design implementation. There are 4 global
clock pins that can also be used as dedicated inputs.
All inputs and I/O pins have built-in pull-up resistors.
While it is always good design practice to tie unused
pins high, the pull-up resistors provide design security
and stability in the event that unused pins are left
disconnected.
The PAL Blocks
Each PAL block in the MACH435 (Figure 1) contains a
clock generator, a 90-product-term logic array, a logic
allocator, 16 macrocells, an output switch matrix, 8 I/O
cells, and an input switch matrix. The central switch
matrix feeds each PAL block with 33 inputs. This makes
the PAL block look effectively like an independent
“PAL33V16” with 8 to 16 buried macrocells.
In addition to the logic product terms, individual output
enable product terms and two PAL block initialization
product term are provided. Each I/O pin can be
individually enabled. All flip-flops that are in the
synchronous mode within a PAL block are initialized
together by either of the PAL block initialization product
terms.
The Central Switch Matrix and Input
Switch Matrix
The MACH435 central switch matrix is fed by the input
switch matrices in each PAL block. Each PAL block
provides 16 internal feedback signals, 8 registered input
signals, and 8 I/O pin signals to the input switch matrix.
Of these 32 signals, 24 decoded signals are provided to
the central switch matrix by the input switch matrix. The
central switch matrix distributes these signals back to
the PAL blocks in a very efficient manner that provides
for high performance. The design software automatically configures the input and central switch matrices
when fitting a design into the device.
The Product-Term Array
The MACH435 product-term array consists of 80
product terms for logic use, eight product terms for
output enable use, and two product terms for global PAL
block initialization. Each macrocell has a nominal
allocation of 5 product terms for logic, although the logic
allocator allows for logic redistribution. Each I/O pin has
its own individual output enable term. The initialization
product terms provide asynchronous reset or preset to
synchronous-mode macrocells in the PAL block.
The Logic Allocator
The logic allocator in the MACH435 takes the 80 logic
product terms and allocates them to the 16 macrocells
as needed. Each macrocell can be driven by up to 20
product terms if in synchronous mode, or 18 product
terms if in asynchronous mode. When product terms are
routed away from a macrocell, it is possible to route all 5
product terms away, which precludes the use of the
macrocell for logic generation; or it is possible to route
only 4 product terms away, leaving one for simple
function generation. The design software automatically
configures the logic allocator when fitting the design into
the device.
The logic allocator also provides an exclusive-OR gate.
This gate allows generation of combinatorial exclusiveOR logic, such as comparison or addition. It allows
registered exclusive-OR functions, such as CRC generation, to be implemented more efficiently. It also
makes in possible to emulate all flip-flop types with a
D-type flip-flop. Register type emulation is automatically
handled by the design software.
Table 1 illustrates which product term clusters are
available to each macrocell within a PAL block. Refer to
Figure 1 for cluster and macrocell numbers.
The Clock Generator
Each PAL block has a clock generator that can generate
four clock signals for use throughout the PAL block.
These four signals are available to all macrocells and
I/O cells in the PAL block, whether in synchronous or
asynchronous mode. The clock generator chooses the
four signals from the eight possible signals given by the
true and complement versions of the four global clock
pin signals.
The MACH435 has 16 macrocells, half of which can
drive I/O pins; this selection is made by the output switch
matrix. Each macrocell can drive one of four I/O cells.
The allowed combinations are shown in Table 2. Please
refer to Figure 1 for macrocell and I/O pin numbers.
The macrocells can be configured as registered,
latched, or combinatorial. In combination with the logic
allocator, the registered configuration can be any of the
standard flip-flop types. The macrocell provides internal
feedback whether configured with or without the flipflop, and whether or not the macrocell drives an I/O cell.
The flip-flop clock depends on the mode selected for
the macrocell. In synchronous mode, any of the PAL
block clocks generated by the Clock Generator can be
used. In asynchronous mode, the additional choice of
either edge of an individual product-term clock is
available.
Initialization can be handled as part of a bank of
macrocells via the PAL block initialization terms if in
synchronous mode, or individually if in asynchronous
mode. In synchronous mode, one of the PAL block
product terms is available each for preset and reset. The
swap function determines which product term drives
which function. This allows initialization polarity compatibility with the MACH 1 and 2 series. In asynchronous
mode, one product term can be used either to drive reset
or preset.
The I/O Cell
The I/O cell in the MACH435 consists of a three-state
buffer and an input flip-flop. The I/O cell is driven by one
of the macrocells, as selected by the output switch
matrix. Each I/O cell can take its input from one of eight
macrocells. The three-state buffer is controlled by an
individual product term. The input flip-flop can be
configured as a register or latch. Both the direct I/O
signal and the registered/latched signal are available to
the input switch matrix, and can be used simultaneously
if desired.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent device failure. Functionality at
or above these limits is not implied. Exposure to Absolute
