Architecture and synthesis issues in PSoC
Manoj S. Sankhe, Rajendra D. Kanphade · 2010
The technology and architecture of interconnections could be considered as the most important factor in determining the effectiveness of Microcontrollers, FPGA, PSoC (Program Silicon on chip), and ASIC etc. for a specific application. Due to their restricted connectivity, FPGAs represent a challenging technology for CAD tools developers. This paper presents theoretical and experimental aspects of the methodology for embedded system design with PSoC controllers. Also we will present an overview of PSoC architecture, available commercially and the approaches used in PSoC layout and logic synthesis. The presentation will cover these issues from both a user's prospective and CAD tools developers prospective.
