In the past, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) circuits only contained a limited amount of logic and operated at a low frequency. Few applications running on FPGAs consumed exc...
Output Prediction Logic (OPL) is a technique that can be applied to conventional CMOS logic families to obtain considerable speedups. When applied to static CMOS, OPL retains the ...
Abstract—One of the ways that custom instruction set extensions can improve over software execution is through the use of hardware structures that have been optimized at the arit...
Current advances in chip design and manufacturing have allowed IC manufacturing to approach the nanometer range. As the feature size scales down, greater variability is experience...
Given large circuit sizes, high clock frequencies, and possibly extreme operating environments, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are capable of heating beyond their designed...
