Motivated by improving FPGA performance, we propose a new three-dimensional (3D)
FPGA architecture, along with a fabrication methodology. We analyze the expected …

The performance benefits of a monolithically stacked 3D-FPGA, whereby the programming
overhead of an FPGA is stacked on top of a standard CMOS layer containing the logic …

Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have emerged as an attractive means of
implementing logic circuits, providing instant manufacturing turnaround and negligible …

Many different kinds of FPGAs exist, with different programming technologies, different
architectures and different software. Field-Programmable Gate Array Technology describes …

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are integrated circuits, which constitute the “new
kid in town''where digital hardware technology is concerned. An FPGA is an array of logic …

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) were invented in 1984 by Ross Freeman.
Basically, it is a semiconductor consisting of programmable logic blocks that can be used to …

Advances in VLSI technology have brought very complex digital systems onto a very small
area of silicon. However, the design cycle times associated with the conventional VLSI …

We are designing and plan to fabricate a 3-dimensional field programmable gate array. The
three dimensional VLSI technology, developed at Northeastern University, is based on …

Process technology advances tell us that the one-million gate Field-Programmable Gate
Array (FPGA) will soon be here, and larger devices shortly after that. We feel that current …
