Download or read book Routing for FPGAs Via Boolean Satisfiability written by R. Glenn Wood and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "FPGAs are a novel circuit architecture supporting quick and unlimited reuse. Physical design for the regular, pre-existing interconnect present in this architecture has been studied extensively with some researchers advocating the use of traditional ASIC design techniques and others exploiting its uniqueness to explore new layout strategies. This thesis uses a novel approach to map the FPGA routing problem to a Boolean satisfiability problem so that the applicability of established techniques from logic design can be stuided [sic]. Specifically, Binary Decision Diagrams are used to build and store the constraints for the Boolean problem in an efficient manner. A new variable ordering technique using methods adopted from physical design is introduced that significantly increases the size of problems that are feasible under this new formulation. This technique can be applied in the context of a global router as a perfect congestion estimator. It is able to determine all feasible routes within a region while avoiding the net ordering problem. Experimental results from a standard FPGA benchmark suite suggest the technique is feasible for realistic circuits."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrates techniques which will allow rewiring rates ofover 95%, enabling adoption of deep sub-micron chips for industrialapplications Logic synthesis is an essential part of the modern digital ICdesign process in semi-conductor industry. This book discusses alogic synthesis technique called “rewiring” and itslatest technical advancement in term of rewirability. Rewiringtechnique has surfaced in academic research since 1993 and there iscurrently no book available on the market which systematically andcomprehensively discusses this rewiring technology. The authorscover logic transformation techniques with concentration onrewiring. For many decades, the effect of wiring on logicstructures has been ignored due to an ideal view of wires and theirnegligible role in the circuit performance. However intoday’s semiconductor technology wiring is the major playerin circuit performance degeneration and logic synthesis engines canbe improved to deal with this through wire-based transformations.This book introduces the automatic test pattern generation(ATPG)-based rewiring techniques, which are recently active in therealm of logic synthesis/verification of VLSI/SOC designs. Unique comprehensive coverage of semiconductor rewiringtechniques written by leading researchers in the field Provides complete coverage of rewiring from an introductory tointermediate level Rewiring is explained as a flexible technique for Boolean logicsynthesis, introducing the concept of Boolean circuittransformation and testing, with examples Readers can directly apply the described techniques toreal-world VLSI design issues Focuses on the automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) basedrewiring methods although some non-ATPG based rewiring methods suchas graph based alternative wiring (GBAW), and “set of pairsof functions to be distinguished” (SPFD) based rewiring arealso discussed A valuable resource for researchers and postgraduate students inVLSI and SoC design, as well as digital design engineers, EDAsoftware developers, and design automation experts that specializein the synthesis and optimization of logical circuits.

Download or read book High Performance Integer Arithmetic Circuit Design on FPGA written by Ayan Palchaudhuri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the optimized implementations of several arithmetic datapath, controlpath and pseudorandom sequence generator circuits for realization of high performance arithmetic circuits targeted towards a specific family of the high-end Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). It explores regular, modular, cascadable and bit-sliced architectures of these circuits, by directly instantiating the target FPGA-specific primitives in the HDL. Every proposed architecture is justified with detailed mathematical analyses. Simultaneously, constrained placement of the circuit building blocks is performed, by placing the logically related hardware primitives in close proximity to one another by supplying relevant placement constraints in the Xilinx proprietary “User Constraints File”. The book covers the implementation of a GUI-based CAD tool named FlexiCore integrated with the Xilinx Integrated Software Environment (ISE) for design automation of platform-specific high-performance arithmetic circuits from user-level specifications. This tool has been used to implement the proposed circuits, as well as hardware implementations of integer arithmetic algorithms where several of the proposed circuits are used as building blocks. Implementation results demonstrate higher performance and superior operand-width scalability for the proposed circuits, with respect to implementations derived through other existing approaches. This book will prove useful to researchers, students and professionals engaged in the domain of FPGA circuit optimization and implementation.

Download or read book Low Power Design in Deep Submicron Electronics written by W. Nebel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low Power Design in Deep Submicron Electronics deals with the different aspects of low power design for deep submicron electronics at all levels of abstraction from system level to circuit level and technology. Its objective is to guide industrial and academic engineers and researchers in the selection of methods, technologies and tools and to provide a baseline for further developments. Furthermore the book has been written to serve as a textbook for postgraduate student courses. In order to achieve both goals, it is structured into different chapters each of which addresses a different phase of the design, a particular level of abstraction, a unique design style or technology. These design-related chapters are amended by motivations in Chapter 2, which presents visions both of future low power applications and technology advancements, and by some advanced case studies in Chapter 9. From the Foreword: `... This global nature of design for low power was well understood by Wolfgang Nebel and Jean Mermet when organizing the NATO workshop which is the origin of the book. They invited the best experts in the field to cover all aspects of low power design. As a result the chapters in this book are covering deep-submicron CMOS digital system design for low power in a systematic way from process technology all the way up to software design and embedded software systems. Low Power Design in Deep Submicron Electronics is an excellent guide for the practicing engineer, the researcher and the student interested in this crucial aspect of actual CMOS design. It contains about a thousand references to all aspects of the recent five years of feverish activity in this exciting aspect of design.' Hugo de Man Professor, K.U.
