  • Abstract
    An FPGA layout algorithm is presented, which deals with placement and global routing simultaneously by fully exploiting its regular structure. It is based on a simple and fast top-down hierarchical bi-partitioning, with placement and global routes represented by positions of logic-blocks and pseudo-blocks, respectively. Experimental results for several benchmark circuits demonstrates its efficiency and effectiveness
