uBRAM-based run-time reconfigurable FPGA and corresponding reconfiguration methodology

With rising demands for high-performance computing and design flexibility of post-fabrication system, reconfigurable architecture has been drawing increasing attentions. However, reconfigurability, advantage of current Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), is severely limited by small capacity of on-chip Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) for storing configuration bits. With emerging high-density and high-performance nano memory devices, opportunities are provided to improve the reconfigurability of the current FPGA´s design.
