Abstract
A method for automatic multipartitioning of a multiple-output logic function into the smallest number of subfunctions for mapping to fixed-size PLAs of a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) chip is described. A detailed example to demonstrate the procedure is presented. It is shown that, for this example, the method produced almost optimum partitions in a fast and efficient manner.<>
