    Hi,


    The architecture of Agilex LAB is similar to Stratix 10, and the answer is Yes, there is direct connection between labs.

    Would you mind tell me why do you want to know?


    Thanks & Regards,

Hi,


May I ask which "Agilex Architecture" You are referring to? Do you mean Hyperflex Core Architecture, or tile's building blocks?

You can understand what the Local and Direct Interconnects are through the Figure 3 on Page 7.

As described in 3.1.2, among the ALM outputs, some of them can drive the LAB inputs directly, which are Direct Interconnects. Local Interconnects are marked in "Figure 3", they drives the inputs of these ten ALMs within this LAB.

The Row/Column Interconnects refers to the general routing resource.

Regards,

Xiaoyan
