Flash Memory Blocks
The flash memory available in each Fusion device is composed of one to four flash blocks, each 2
Mbits in density. Each block operates independently with a dedicated flash controller and
interface. Fusion flash memory blocks combine fast access times (60 ns random access and 10 ns
access in Read-Ahead mode) with a configurable 8-, 16-, or 32-bit datapath, enabling high-speed
flash operation without wait states. The memory block is organized in pages and sectors. Each
page has 128 bytes, with 33 pages comprising one sector and 64 sectors per block. The flash block
can support multiple partitions. The only constraint on size is that partition boundaries must
coincide with page boundaries. The flexibility and granularity enable many use models and allow
added granularity in programming updates.
Fusion devices support two methods of external access to the flash memory blocks. The first
method is a serial interface that features a built-in JTAG-compliant port, which allows in-system
programmability during user or monitor/test modes. This serial interface supports programming of
an AES-encrypted stream. Secure data can be passed through the JTAG interface, decrypted, and
then programmed in the flash block. The second method is a soft parallel interface.
FPGA logic or an on-chip soft microprocessor can access flash memory through the parallel
interface. Since the flash parallel interface is implemented in the FPGA fabric, it can potentially be
customized to meet special user requirements. For more information, refer to the CoreCFI
