Abstract
This paper describes a novel FPGA architecture and related design software for embedding FPGA logic into ASIC designs. The requirements for embedding FPGAs include: fixed pinouts, predictable utilization, predictable and reasonable signal delays, scalability, die size control, and ease of layout. This paper describes Actel's embedded FPGA solution, VariCore/sup TM/.
