Connection Box Bottom<br />

Connection box bottom connects the output <strong>of</strong> the LE above it to the wiring tracks, <strong>an</strong>d<br />

connects the wiring tracks to the inputs <strong>of</strong> the LEs above <strong>an</strong>d below it. It consists <strong>of</strong> 4 big<br />

(size 10) pass tr<strong>an</strong>sistors that feed the output <strong>of</strong> the LE above it to the tracks, <strong>an</strong>d two<br />

cells <strong>of</strong> type “input to LE”, with the corresponding <strong>SRAM</strong> cells<br />

Figure: SetResetLogic Cell<br />

The SetResetLogic cell was designed using a hierarchal m<strong>an</strong>ner. It consists <strong>of</strong> a XOR<br />

cell, two n<strong>an</strong>d cells, two sram cells <strong>an</strong>d two buffer&inverter cell. The inputs to our<br />

SetResetLogic cell are labeled set_reset, program, data_prog <strong>an</strong>d<br />

data_progb <strong>an</strong>d the outputs are labeled set, setb, reset, <strong>an</strong>d resetb as seen in the<br />

figure.<br />
