Abstract(in English) In order to implement logic functions, conventional field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) adopt look-up tables (LUTs) as programmable logic cells. N-input LUTs can implement any N-input logic functions. However, there is no need to use all logic functions in a circuit implementation. Therefore, we can cut down the area and configuration memory bits of logic cells by decreasing the functionality. In this paper, we propose a novel small-memory logic cell, c0GRE, to minimize the FPGA area. The experimental results show that the logic area in 6-COGRE is 46.3% smaller than that in 6-LUT. The logic area of 5-COGRE is 32.6% smaller than that of 5-LUT and 10.0% smaller than that of 4-LUT. Further, the total number of configuration memory bits in 6-COGRE is 32.1% smaller than the number of configuration memory bits in 6-LUT.
