LUT_INPUT Primitive

The LUT_INPUT buffer specifies a LUT function. The LUT_INPUT buffer marks input signals for a LUT_OUTPUT buffer. The logical functionality of the LUT_INPUT and LUT_OUTPUT buffers is a simple wire, but together they identify LUT boundaries.

To make a LUT, you need to use both input and output buffers that bound a cone of logic, as in the following example.

FUNCTION lut_output (in) RETURNS (out);
FUNCTION lut_input (in) RETURNS (out);
 
SUBDESIGN   test
(
    ina     : INPUT ;
    inb     : INPUT ;
    inc     : INPUT ;
    ind     : INPUT ;
 
    outd    : OUTPUT ;
)
 
BEGIN
  outd = lut_output(
        lut_input (ina) &
        lut_input (inb) &
        lut_input (inc) &
        lut_input (ind)
  ) ;
 

END ;
