Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Recently, the logic circuits are implemented to FPGA in many fields. To achieve faster circuits, a design flow to implement general-synchronous circuits that allow to distribute the clock signal at different timings to the registers in FPGA produced by Xilinx has been proposed.However, since the excess margins are often added to work the general-synchronous circuits correctly in the existing method, the performance improvement by the existing method is not enough.Furthermore, in the existing method, since circuits given as the inputs of the flow are represented in gate-level, it is not practical.In this paper, to improve the existing method, we propose a design flow to implement the general-synchronous circuits to FPGA produced by Xilinx by using the engineering change order without adding the excess margins from the RTL representation.Experiment shows the effectiveness of the proposed method.
