Title
Input assignment algorithm for decoded-PLAs with multi-input decoders
Abstract
A heuristic algorithm for assigning input variables to the decoders of a decoded-programmable logic array (PLA) is presented. In this algorithm, the number of inputs to each decoder is not restricted to two and the area overhead incurred by using multi-input decoders is considered in the cost function. Experimental results show that the areas of multi-input decoded-PLAs designed by this algorithm are smaller in many cases than those of decoded-PLAs with two-input decoders or standard PLAs.<>
