Abstract(in English) We propose a fine-grained programmable logic architecture designed to be embedded in system-on-chips (SoCs) to enhance the performance maintaining the programmability. The ePLX consists of Look-Up-Table (LUT) arrays and hierarchial wiring resources connecting them. In order to implement a target function on the ePLX, we need a set of computer-aided design tools. This paper presents a fundamental discussion on an automated router for interconnection blocks. Since the interconnection block has hierarchial and repeated structure and there may be variations of the structure, we define an efficient format to describe the architecture of the interconnection block and provide it to our router. We construct a basic framework of routing algorithms where one net is selected and (re)routed one by one.
