A modular synthesis flow is essential for a scalable and hierarchical design methodology. This paper considers a particular modular flow where each module has interface methods an...
In this paper we describe a hardware design method for memory and register arrays that allows the application of formal equivalence checking for comparing a high-level register tr...
Functional decomposition is a fundamental operation in logic synthesis. Prior BDD-based approaches to functional decomposition suffer from the memory explosion problem and do not...
