Logic Synthesis for Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Technology
John W. Lockwood · 2003
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) enable rapid development and implementation of complex digital circuits. FPGA devices can be reprogrammed and reused, allowing the same hardware to be employed for entirely new designs or for new iterations of the same design. While much of traditional IC logic synthesis methods apply, FPGA circuits have special requirements that affect synthesis.
