Field programmable gate array architecture including a buffer module and a method of distributing buffer modules in a field programmable gate array

摘要

The present system comprises a device and a method for increasing the performance and utilization in a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The device of the present system comprises an FPGA having logic clusters, wherein each logic cluster further comprises a buffer. The method of the present system comprises a method of determining which buffers situated in each logic cluster are located in the best position in the post-placement user netlist to decrease the capacitance in the user netlist.
