Abstract :
This paper presents a decomposition method for logic mapping on PALs. It addresses a large variety of PALs. For functions having too many variables, a novel approach based on algebraic divisions is proposed. It is followed by an interesting reinjection phase tending to suppress unuseful decompositions. Both critical path and PAL numbers are optimised
