Flexibility of interconnection structures for field-programmable gate arrays
@article{Rose1991FlexibilityOI, title={Flexibility of interconnection structures for field-programmable gate arrays}, author={J. Rose and S. Brown}, journal={IEEE Journal of Solid-state Circuits}, year={1991}, volume={26}, pages={277-282} }
The relationship between the routability of a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and the flexibility of its interconnection structures is examined. The flexibility of an FPGA is determined by the number and distribution of switches used in the interconnection. While good routability can be obtained with a high flexibility, a large number of switches will result in poor performance and logical density because each switch has significant delay and area. The minimum number of switches required… Expand
