The Quartus II software automatically creates carry chain logic during design
processing, or you can create it manually during design entry. Parameterized
functions such as LPM functions automatically take advantage of carry chains for the
appropriate functions. The Quartus II software creates carry chains longer than 10 LEs
by linking adjacent LABs within the same row together automatically. A carry chain
can extend horizontally up to one full LAB row, but does not extend between LAB
rows.
Clear and Preset Logic Control
LAB-wide signals control the logic for the register’s clear and preset signals. The LE
directly supports an asynchronous clear and preset function. The register preset is
achieved through the asynchronous load of a logic high. MAX V devices support
simultaneous preset/asynchronous load and clear signals. An asynchronous clear
signal takes precedence if both signals are asserted simultaneously. Each LAB
supports up to two clears and one preset signal.
In addition to the clear and preset ports, MAX V devices provide a chip-wide reset pin
(DEV_CLRn) that resets all registers in the device. An option set before compilation in
the Quartus II software controls this pin. This chip-wide reset overrides all other
control signals and uses its own dedicated routing resources without using any of the
four global resources. Driving this signal low before or during power-up prevents
user mode from releasing clears within the design. This allows you to control when
clear is released on a device that has just been powered-up. If not set for its chip-wide
reset function, the DEV_CLRn pin is a regular I/O pin.
By default, all registers in MAX V devices are set to power-up low. However, this
power-up state can be set to high on individual registers during design entry using
the Quartus II software.
The Quartus II memory compiler can configure the unused LEs as LE RAM.
