Logic Synthesis
• Translate synthesizable RTL code to gate-level
design

Always @(posedge clk) begin


if(sel1) begin
if(sel2)
out = in1 ;
else
out = in2 ; Gate-level circuits
else if(sel3)
if(sel4)
out = in3 ;

out = in4 ;
end
endmodule

Resource Sharing
• Example
if (op_code ==0)
r=a+c;
else
r=a+b;
• Sharing
– a single ALU for the two additions
– a MUX for the second input of the ALU
• No-Sharing
– two adders for the two additions
– an output MUX to select the output

Lab3-6

Register Inferencing
• Determines which signals must be preserved across
cycle boundaries
– incomplete logic specification (missing branches)
– explicit register instantiation
• always @(posedge clk)
– signal used before assigned

Two-level Logic Optimization
• AND-OR representations
– easy implementation as PLAs and PLDs
– a key optimization technique
– efficient algorithms and heuristics exist
– in commercial use for several years
– minimize the number of product terms
• Example
– F = XYZ + XY’Z’ + XY’Z + X’YZ + XYZ
– F = XY’ + YZ

Lab3-8

Multi-Level Logic Optimization
• Meet performance or area constraints through
restructuring and simplifications
– two-level minimization
– common factor extraction
– common expression resubstitution
• Trade-off between area and delay
• In commercial use for several years
– f1 = abcd+abce+ab’cd’+ab’c’d+a’c+cdf+abc’d’e’+ab’c’df’
– f2 = bdg + b’dfg + b’d’g+bd’eg

– f1 = c(a’+x)+ac’x’
– f2 = gx
– x = d(b+f) + d’(b’+e)

What is Implementation?
• More than just “Place & Route”
• Implementation includes many phases
– Translate: Merge multiple design files into a single netlist
– Map: Group logical symbols from the netlist (gates) into
physical components (CLBs and IOBs)
– Place & Route: Place components onto the chip, connect
them, and extract timing data into reports
– Timing (Sim): Generate a back-annotated netlist for timing
simulation tools
– Configure: Generate a bitstream for device configuration
