Abstract
The field programmable gate-array (FPGA) has become an important technology in VLSI ASIC designs. Most existing algorithms for performance-driven technology mapping for Lookup-table (LUT)-based FPGA designs are based on the unit-delay model. In this paper we study the technology mapping problem under arbitrary net-delay models. We show that if the net delay can be determined or estimated before mapping, the problem can be optimally solved in polynomial time based on efficient network flow computation. We have implemented the algorithm and tested it on a number of MCNC benchmark examples.
