METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR DESIGNING MULTIPLEXERS

摘要

Methods and apparatuses for designing multiplexers in one or more integrated circuits are described. One exemplary method includes receiving a representation of a first multiplexer and converting the representation to a partition neutral representation of the first multiplexer and partitioning the partition neutral representation to create a plurality of second multiplexers. Another exemplary method includes decomposing a representation of a first multiplexer into a representation of a plurality of second multiplexers, which are coupled together at a common output without any intervening multiplexers between the second multiplexers and the common output, and partitioning the second multiplexers between portions of at least one integrated circuit.
