Abstract:

Applications of reconfigurable sequential circuits can be found in a variety of digital systems, such as communication networks, data processing units, embedded systems, and designs based on FPGAs. They are able to handle dynamic requirements and maximize the utilization of hardware resources thanks to their capability to adapt and alter their functionality on the fly. Static configurations are used in traditional implementations of sequential circuits. This means that the logic and functionality of the circuit are fixed during the synthesis processing. Despite the fact that these methods are simple to create and put into action, they are not adaptable and cannot be updated without the circuit being redesigned in its entirety. The solution that has been described comprises the deployment of a Reconfigurable Logic Block (RLB) that is devoted to the sequential circuits. This RLB makes it possible to make dynamic configuration changes without affecting the overall structure of the circuit. Using look up tables and multiplexers, the RLB may be designed to offer a variety of logic operations. This gives the sequential circuit, which includes counters and shift registers, the ability to vary its behavior.
