The invention allows the implementation of common wide logic functions using only two function generators of a field programmable gate array. One embodiment of the invention provides a structure for implementing a wide AND-gate in an FPGA configurable logic element (CLE) or portion thereof that includes no more than two function generators. First and second function generators are configured as AND-gates, the output signals (first and second AND signals) being combined in a 2-to-1 multiplexer controlled by the first AND signal, "0" selecting the first AND signal and "1" selecting the second AND signal. Therefore, a wide AND-gate is provided having a number of input signals equal to the total number of input signals for the two function generators. In another embodiment, a wide OR-gate is provided by configuring the function generators as OR-gates and controlling the multiplexer using the second OR signal.
