Abstract :
This paper presented the design of the largest 476-gate count DORGA fabricated by using 0.35 mum three-metal CMOS technology. In the case of reconfiguring DORGA at 100MHz, the required optical power was estimated 2.24 W. At that time, the reconfiguration data transfer rate of the DORGA VLSI chip reaches 369.6 Gbit/s
