ORCA® ORT4622 Field-Programmable System Chip (FPSC)
Four Channel x 622 Mbits/s Backplane Transceiver
Introduction
Lattice Semiconductor has developed a solution for
designers who need the many advantages of FPGAbased design implementation, coupled with highspeed serial backplane data transfer. The 622 Mbits/
s backplane transceiver offers a clockless, highspeed interface for interdevice communication on a
board or across a backplane. The built-in clock recovery of the ORT4622 allows for higher system performance, easier-to-design clock domains in a
multiboard system, and fewer signals on the backplane. Network designers will benefit from the backplane transceiver as a network termination device.
The backplane transceiver offers SONET scrambling/
descrambling of data and streamlined SONET framing, pointer moving, and transport overhead handling, plus the programmable logic to terminate the
network into proprietary systems. For non-SONET
applications, all SONET functionality is hidden from
the user and no prior networking knowledge is
required.
Embedded Core Features
■
Implemented in an ORCA Series 3 FPGA array.
■
Allows wide range of applications for SONET network termination application as well as generic
data moving for high-speed backplane data transfer.
■
No knowledge of SONET/SDH needed in generic
applications. Simply supply data, 78 MHz clock,
and a frame pulse.
■
High-speed interface (HSI) function for clock/data
recovery serial backplane data transfer without
external clocks.
■
HSI function uses a proven 622 Mbits/s serial interface core.
■
Four-channel HSI function provides 622 Mbits/s
serial interface per channel for a total chip bandwidth of 2.5 Gbits/s (full duplex).
■
LVDS I/Os compliant with EIA*-644, support hot
insertion.
■
8:1 data multiplexing/demultiplexing for 77.76 MHz
byte-wide data processing in FPGA logic.
■
On-chip phase-lock loop (PLL) clock meets B jitter
tolerance specification of ITU-T Recommendation
G.958 (0.6 UIp-p at 250 kHz).
■
Powerdown option of HSI receiver on a perchannel basis.
■
Highly efficient implementation with only 3% overhead vs. 25% for 8B10B coding.
■
In-Band management and configuration.
■
Streamlined pointer processor (pointer mover) for
8 kHz frame alignment to system clocks.
■
Built-in boundry scan (IEEE † 1149.1 JTAG).

* The embedded core and interface are not included in the above gate counts. The usable gate count range from a logic-only gate count to
a gate count assuming 30% of the PFUs/SLICs being used as RAMs. The logic-only gate count includes each PFU/SLIC (counted as
108 gates per PFU/SLIC), including 12 gates pre-LUT/FF pair (eight per PFU), and 12 gates per SLC/FF pair (one per PFU). Each of the
four PIOs per PIC is counted as 16 gates (two FFs, fast-capture latch, output logic, CLK drivers, and I/O buffers). PFUs used as RAM are
counted at four gates per bit, with each PFU capable of implementing a 32 x 4 RAM (or 512 gates) per PFU.

FPSC Highlights
■
Implemented as an embedded core in the ORCA
Series 3+ FPSC architecture.
■
Allows the user to integrate the core with up to 120K
gates of programmable logic (all in one device) and
provides up to 242 user I/Os in addition to the
embedded core I/O pins.
■
FPGA portion retains all of the features of the ORCA
Series 3 FPGA architecture:
— High-performance, cost-effective, 0.25 µm, 5-level
metal technology.
— Twin-quad programmable function unit (PFU)
architecture with eight 16-bit look-up tables
(LUTs) per PFU, organized in two nibbles for use
in nibble- or byte-wide functions. Allows for mixed
arithmetic and logic functions in a single PFU.
— Softwired LUTs (SWL) allow fast cascading of up
to three levels of LUT logic in a single PFU.
— Supplemental logic and interconnect cell (SLIC)
provides 3-statable buffers, up to 10-bit decoder,
and PAL*-like AND-OR-INVERT (AOI) in each
programmable logic cell (PLC).

fast clocking of signals on- and off-chip plus
access to internal general clock routing.
— Dual-use microprocessor interface (MPI) can be
used for configuration, as well as for a generalpurpose interface to the FPGA. Glueless interface
