An apparatus comprising one or more configurable interface tiles. The configurable interface tiles may be configured to communicate one or more signals between one or more programmable logic cores and one or more fixed function cores. The one or more configurable interface tiles, the one or more programmable logic cores and the one or more fixed function cores may be integrated on a single chip.

Interface scheme for connecting a fixed circuitry block to a programmable logic core

A method and architecture for providing signal paths between a programmable logic core and a fixed function core comprising the steps of (a) coupling one or more first signals between the fixed function core and an interface block configured to couple the fixed function core and the programmable logic core and (b) coupling one or more second signals between the interface block and the programmable logic core.
