Abstract :
This paper investigates some design flows to obtain final designs on Xilinx XC4000 FPGAs. The examples generated by high level synthesis were mapped including placement and routing. This reveals that the common criteria of area optimal or delay-optimal circuits should be enlarged by routability and computing time
