Abstract:Programmable Logic Array (PLA) is an important building circuit of VLSI chips and some of the FPGA architectures have evolved from the basic PLA architectures. In this letter, a dynamic and static mixed PLA with single-phased clock is presented. Combining both dynamic and static design style rather than introducing additional interface-buffers overcomes the racing problem, thereby saves the chip area. Besides inheriting the advantages of dynamic circuit-low power dissipation and compact structure, this approac… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
