Faster Logic Manipulation for Large Designs
نویسندگان
چکیده
When logic transformations, such as circuit restructuring, technology mapping, and post-mapping optimization, are repeatedly applied to large hardware designs, millions of relatively small (6-16 input) Boolean functions have to be efficiently manipulated. This paper focuses on a novel representation of these small functions, in terms of their disjoint-support decomposition (DSD) structures. A new DSD manipulation package is developed, which allows for faster logic manipulation compared to known methods.

Reversible Logic Multipliers: Novel Low-cost Parity-Preserving Designs
Reversible logic is one of the new paradigms for power optimization that can be used instead of the current circuits. Moreover, the fault-tolerance capability in the form of error detection or error correction is a vital aspect for current processing systems. In this paper, as the multiplication is an important operation in computing systems, some novel reversible multiplier designs are propose...
متن کاملLogic Synthesis of LUT Cascades with Limited Rails
Programmable LUT cascades are used to evaluate multi-output Boolean functions. This paper shows several representations of multi-output functions and introduces a new decomposition algorithm applicable to these representations. The algorithm produces LUT cascades with the limited number of rails, which leads to significantly faster circuits and applicability to large designs. The experiment sho...
متن کاملAsynchronous VLSI Design: An overview
An asynchronous circuit, or self-timed circuit, is a sequential digital logic circuit which is not enabled by a global clock signal. Instead of that, they often use signals that indicate completion of operations and instructions, specified by handshaking or simple data transfer protocols. This type is contrasted with a synchronous logic circuit where changes to the output signal values are trig...
متن کاملProgrammable Logic Construction Kits for Hyper-Real-Time Neuronal Modeling
Programmable logic designs are presented that achieve exact integration of leaky integrate-and-fire soma and dynamical synapse neuronal models and incorporate spike-time dependent plasticity and axonal delays. Highly accurate numerical performance has been achieved by modifying simpler forward-Euler-based circuitry requiring minimal circuit allocation, which, as we show, behaves equivalently to...
