Abstract :
The authors propose a new architecture that combines two existing technologies: lookup-table-based FPGAs and complex programmable logic devices based on PLA-like blocks. Their mapping results indicate that on average LUT-based FPGAs require 78% more area than their hybrid FPGA, while providing roughly the same circuit depth
