Abstract
The paper presents logic synthesis method targeted at FPGA architectures with specialized embedded memory blocks (EMB). Existing tools/compilers treat ROM modules described in HDLs as indivisible entities and in consequence do not ensure effective utilization of the possibilities provided by such modules. In order to address this problem effectively we propose applying functional decomposition. The main contribution is based on the use of r-admissibility measure to guide decomposition structures for ROM-based synthesis.
