Abstract
This paper details the architecture of an FPGA chess-move generator. The design is based on Deep Blue´s move generator. The inherent differences between ASICs and FPGAs imply many design changes. We present improvements that exploit important FPGA features (lookup-table based logic, routing resources, distributed and block RAM)
