Balanced Power, Speed and Area Transformation Procedure for Finite State Machines
Adam Klimowicz · 2022 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC) · 2022
A balanced method for the merging and splitting transformation procedures for incompletely specified finite state machines implemented on field programmable logic arrays is proposed. In this method, such optimization criteria as the power consumption, speed of operation and cost of implementation are considered already in the early phase of FSM synthesis. The method also takes into account the technological features of programmable logic and the state assignment method. The transformation quality ratio is calculated on the base of estimations of power, speed and area parameters and the user can select the direction of the optimization by setting weights for each criterion. The approach to the estimation of optimization criteria values is presented and experimental results are also discussed.
