ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a method and apparatus for configuring the internal memory cells of an integrated circuit through the logic fabric are disclosed. For example, an integrated circuit according to one embodiment includes a logic fabric and a plurality of input/output blocks coupled to the logic fabric, wherein the plurality of input/output blocks is positioned around the periphery of the logic fabric. The plurality of input/output blocks therefore forms a ring around the logic fabric, wherein a data path and a clock path are formed along the periphery of the logic fabric through the plurality of input/output blocks.
