Abstract :
Ternary and quaternary lattice diagrams are introduced that can find applications to submicron design, and designing new fine-grain digital, analog and mixed FPGAs. They expand the ideas of lattice diagrams and linearly-independent (LI) logic. In a regular layout, every cell is connected to 4, 6 or 8 neighbors and to a number of vertical, horizontal and diagonal buses. Various lattices and algorithms for their creation are presented
