Division [3A502] General purpose “electronic assemblies”, modules and equipment, as follows:F1F2

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

i.“Electronic assemblies”, modules or equipment, containing one or more 'user configurable' Field Programmable Logic Devices (FPLDs) and having an ‘aggregate lookup table input count' of greater than or equal to 1 800 000.

N.B.:

For items having FPLDs that are combined with an Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC), rated for extended operating temperatures or are radiation hardened, or have cryptographic functionality, see 3A002.h., 4A001.a., and 5A002.a. respectively.

Technical Notes:

For the purposes of 3A502.i.:

1.'User configurable' means a user can configure or modify the logic cells or interconnects between logic cells within the FPLD logic fabric to prescribe the specific function that the 3A502.i. item performs.
2.'Aggregate lookup table input count' is the sum of the number of independent inputs available to each programmable Lookup Table (LUT), as accumulated across all physical LUTs contained within a FPLD or other programmable item. An example is: a circuit board containing 2 FPGAs, each having 150 000 programmable LUTs with 6 inputs, would have an 'aggregate lookup table input count' of 2 x 150 000 x 6 = 1 800 000.
