TMS320F28379D: Number of I/O pins about CLB

Part Number: TMS320F28379D


Hi, Experts,

I have a question about the CLB input/output pin settings like the following thread.
:https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/c2000/f/171/t/838650?TMS320F28379D-Pins-of-CLB

We understand that "Each CLB has multiple inputs and outputs which can be routed to I/O pins via the X-bars if desired."
So I have a question about the number of pins that can be set.


1)Is the maximum number of I/O pins that can be assigned as input to 1 CLB module 8 PINs?
2)Is the maximum number of I/O pins that can be assigned as output from 1 CLB module 16 PIN? (It duplicates, so it has the same signal, but ...)

Best regards,
O.H

    The below is from the Technical Reference Manual (TRM).  The signals are further described in the TRM. 

    There are four instances of the CLB module in the device. Each CLB instance sees a common set 72 input signals referred to as global input signals. Additionally, each CLB instance has a specific set of 25 input signals that are unique to each instance, and are referred to as local input signals. Each of the eight inputs of a CLB can be chosen from any of the global input signals or the local input signals.

    There are 8 unique outputs from the tile - these are the outputs from the 8 output LUTs.  As you mention, they are replicated to create 16 total.  Refer to the TRM, Peripheral Signal Multiplexer in the CLB chapter for details of each output signal.
