Abstract

The channel segmentation design problem for row-based FPGAs is to design a segmented channel to maximize the probability of successful routing. In this paper, we present an algorithm which takes an arbitrary net distribution and an integer K (specifying the maximum number of segments allowed in routing a net) as inputs, and automatically generates a segmented channel which is most suitable for K-segment channel routing. Our algorithm was tested extensively over various net distributions. We also present a new algorithm for segmented channel routing based on reducing the problem to the maximum independent set problem for undirected graphs.
