                      Announcements/Reminders
 • Send me top 3 choices for topic for mini literary survey
    – PowerPoint tree due: Fri 9/17 by class, so try to have to
      me by 9/16 night. My current plan is to summarize
      some of the classes findings during class.
    – Final 5-10 page write up on your tree due: Fri 9/24
      midnight.

    • LUTs are fine for implementing any arbitrary
      combinational logic (output is ONLY a function of its
      inputs) function. But what about sequential logic
      (output is a function of input AND previous state
      information)?

                  Computational Fabric - LUT
    • N-Lut, 3,4…6,…8-LUT
         – AND, XOR, NOT
         – Exercises
               • How many 4-LUTs to OR 32 bits (draw)
               • How many 4-LUTs to AND 2 bits with the OR of
                 these 32 bits (draw)
               • Draw the truth table for the 4-LUT that gives the final
                 output
         – How could one implement a LUT (Memory + MUX)
         – How many ways can a 4-LUT be programmed
         – How many ways can a N-LUT be programmed
    • Granularity trade-off: Functionality vs. propagation
      delay (2-LUT -> CPU), bit-level vs. datapath

                  Computational Fabric - DFF
    • Enable building circuits that can store information
      (sequential circuits, state machines)
    • Enables pipelining to increase operating frequency/
      throughput

 Communication: Interconnect & Routing
    • Need a mechanism to move the results of a LUT to
      other LUTs.
    • Island stale (Array of CB)
         – Nearest neighbor (paper on reconfigure arch that uses
           this)
               • Not scalable (large delays, and uses logic elements for
                 routing?)
         – Segmented (different length for latency trade-off)
               • Multi hop scales < O(N)?
               • Avoid using logic
         – Hierarchical (good for apps with lots of local
           communication and little remote communication)
    • Typical an FPGA silicon area will be 10% logic and
      90% interconnect!!
46 - CPRE 583 (Reconfigurable Computing): Reconfigurable Computing Hardware   Iowa State University (Ames)
         Optimized Resources: Hard Cores
    • LUTs + DFFs can implement any arbitrary digital
      logic. But not optimally (ASICs give make much
      better use of silicon area for Power, Speed,
      routing resources)
    • Arithmetic
         – Add, Mult
    • On chip memory
    • System on chip building blocks
         – Processor, PCI-express, Gigbit Ethernet, A/D
