This paper presents a CAD technology mapping algorithm for LUT-based FPGAs. Since interconnections in an FPGA must be accomplished with limited routing resources, routability is the most important objective in a technology mapping algorithm. To optimize routability, the goal of the algorithm is the production of a design with a minimum interconnection. The Min-cut algorithm[1]-[3]is first used to partition a graph representing a Boolean network into clusters so that the total number of interconnections between clusters is minimum. To decrease further the number of interconnections needed, clusters are then merged into larger clusters by a pairing technique. This algorithm has been tested on the MCNC benchmark circuits. Compared with other LUT-based FPGA mapping algorithms, the algorithm produces better routability characteristics.
