Zusammenfassung:An integrated circuit is provided that includes via-configured structured logic circuitry and an embedded arithmetic block that interfaces with the via-configured structured logic circuitry to perform an arithmetic function. The embedded arithmetic block includes at least one monolithic arithmetic circuit that can perform the arithmetic function more efficiently or taking up less die space than a comparable circuit formed from the via-configured structured logic circuitry.
