A programmable logic device (PLD) is provided that includes at least one dedicated output routing channel configured to facilitate the processing of output signals generated by multiple function-specific blocks (FSBs). The output routing channel includes a plurality of functional units that may be programmably selectively chained, wherein each functional unit contains an operational block and output selection logic that are configured to programmably selectively implement any of a variety of operations (e.g., bitwise, logical, arithmetic, etc.) that may be performed on the outputs of single FSBs and/or several FSBs. In addition to the output routing channel, the PLD may also contain at least one input routing channel that is configured to facilitate the routing, registering, and/or selection of FSB input signals. In some cases, the FSB input routing channel may also include circuitry for performing elementary processing operations.
