■ Software design support and automatic place–and–route provided by Altera’s development systems for Windows–based PCs and Sun SPARCstations, and HP 9000 Series 700/800 workstations
■ Additional design entry and simulation support provided by EDIF 2 0 0 and 3 0 0 netlist files, library of parameterized modules (LPM), Verilog HDL, VHDL, and other interfaces to popular EDA tools from third–party manufacturers such as Cadence, Exemplar Logic, Mentor Graphics, OrCAD, Synopsys, Synplicity, and VeriBest
■ Programming support with the Altera master programming unit (MPU), MasterBlasterTM communications cable, ByteBlasterMVTM parallel port download cable, BitBlasterTM serial download cable as well as programming hardware from third–party manufacturers and any in–circuit tester that supports JamTM Standard Test and Programming Language (STAPL) Files (.jam), Jam STAPL Byte-Code Files (.jbc), or Serial Vector Format Files (.svf)

Functional Description
The MAX 3000A architecture includes the following elements:
■ Logic array blocks (LABs)
■ Macrocells
■ Expander product terms (shareable and parallel)
■ Programmable interconnect array (PIA)
■ I/O control blocks

The MAX 3000A architecture includes four dedicated inputs that can be used as general–purpose inputs or as high–speed, global control signals (clock, clear, and two output enable signals) for each macrocell and I/O pin. Figure 1 shows the architecture of MAX 3000A devices.
