Abstract :
In this paper, we present the design of a novel Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) which contains the necessary logic elements to support high performance computer arithmetic. The FPGA contains a routing framework and logic cell structure that is suitable for implementing digital systems for computer arithmetic, image processing, digital signal processing and similar computationally intensive applications. The proposed architecture is flexible, reconfigurable and will support operands of various sizes for fixed point parallel and serial binary computations
