Abstract :
Field Programmable Gate Array architectures are growing rapidly in popularity for circuit implementations. FPGAs are providing designers with valuable alternatives to low-end mask-programmed ASICs as well as multiple-device PLD implementations. Despite this, the designer who chooses FPGAs may face some limitations due to the present state of the design tools that support FPGA design. This paper will discuss some of these limitations and illustrate how they can be alleviated through the application of universal synthesis tools.
