dc.description.abstractIn FPGAs, interconnects account for a large part of the area and timing budget. Given the significant intra- clock cycle idleness of wire segments in conventional architecture, we in this work propose TM-ARCH, a time-multiplexed architecture for FPGA interconnects. In this architecture, a wire can be multiplexed among multiple nets within one clock cycle. Specially designed time-multiplexing switches (TM switches) are used to enable the multiplexing of wires. Correspondingly, we present a time-multiplexing -aware timing-driven routing algorithm. Based on the VPR 5 timing-driven routing algorithm, this algorithm actively identifies nets that can be scheduled to multiplex wires. This routing algorithm accepts placement results from conventional placement tool, and requires no changes to the upstream EDA tools in FPGA design flow. This is the 1st timing-driven routing algorithm that performs combined global and detailed routing on FPGA architectures with time-multiplexed interconnects.
