ABSTRACT:
A programmable logic device (PLD) includes programmable electronic circuitry. The programmable electronic circuitry allows programming the functionality of the PLD. The programmable electronic circuitry includes one or more of programmable interconnects, pass devices, look-up table circuits, and/or multi-input logic circuits. Each of the programmable interconnects, pass devices, look-up table circuits, and/or multi-input logic circuits includes one or more of dynamic threshold metal oxide semiconductor (DTMOS) transistors, fully depleted metal oxide semiconductor (FDMOS) transistors, partially depleted metal oxide semiconductor (PDMOS) transistors, and/or double-gate metal oxide semiconductor transistors.
