QuickRAM Family Data Sheet Rev. M
Architecture Overview
The QuickRAM
TM
family of Embedded Standard Products (ESP) offer FPGA logic in combination with Dual-
Port SRAM modules. The QuickRAM family of ESPs have up to 90,000 usable PLD gates. QuickRAM ESPs
are fabricated on a 0.35 µm four-layer metal process using QuickLogic's patented ViaLink
TM
technology to
provide a unique combination of high performance, high density, low cost, and extreme ease-of-use.
The QuickRAM family contains a range of 160 to 1,584 logic cells and 8 to 22 dual port RAM Modules
(see
Figure 1).
Each RAM Module has 1,152 RAM bits, for a total ranging from 9,216 to 25,344 bits (see
Table 1).
RAM Modules are dual port (one read port, one write port) and can be configured into one of four
modes: 64 (deep) x18 (wide), 128x9, 256x4, or 512x2 (see
Figure 2).
With a maximum of 308 I/Os, the
QuickRAM family of ESPs are available in many device/package combinations (see
Table 2).

MODE
Designers can cascade multiple RAM Modules to increase the depth or width allowed in single modules by
connecting corresponding address lines together and dividing the words between modules (see
Figure 3).
This
approach allows up to 512-deep configurations as large as 16 bits wide in the smallest QuickRAM device and
44 bits wide in the largest device.

QuickRAM Family Data Sheet Rev. M
Software support for the complete QuickRAM family is available through two basic packages. The turnkey
QuickWorks
TM
package provides the most complete ESP software solution from design entry to logic
synthesis, to place and route, to simulation. The QuickTools
TM
packages provides a solution for designers who
use Cadence, Exemplar, Mentor, Synopsys, Synplicity, Viewlogic, Aldec, or other third-party tools for design
entry, synthesis, or simulation.
The QuickLogic variable grain logic cell features up to 16 simultaneous inputs and 5 outputs within a cell that
can be fragmented into 5 independent cells. Each cell has a fan-in of 29 including register and control lines
(see
Figure 4).

selection
of the
slowest
paths through the QuickRAM logic cell including typical net
delays. Worst case delay values for
specific
paths
should
be determined from timing analysis of your particular design.
