Abstract
This paper describes a newly developed FPGA and its dedicated CAD system. The FPGA is an improved version of our previous telecommunication-based FPGA, especially in terms of the routing resource architecture. Thus, in addition to having the good features of our previous FPGA for realizing telecommunications circuits, it enables us to adopt a top-down design methodology for application circuits configured in the FPGA. The architecture is determined based on a quantitative evaluation carried out to balance the FPGA with CAD algorithms.
