Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a technology mapping algorithm for FPGAs whose logic-block includes tree-topology LUTs. The objective of the algorithm is minimizing the number of logic-blocks. First, if an input Boolean network is tree, we propose a linear-time technology mapping algorithm for computing an optimal solution in terms of the number of logic-blocks, Second, the algorithm is extended so that it can be applied to directed acyclic graph. The extended algorithm consists of three steps; i) partition of an input Boolean network at nodes with multiple fanouts into a forest of trees, ii) generation of an optimal solution for each tree, and iii) optimization of the entire Boolean network. The experimental results for several benchmark circuits show its efficiency and effectiveness.
