On the Power Dissipation of Embedded Memory Blocks Used to Implement Logic in Field-Programmable Gate Arrays

We investigate the power and energy implications of using embedded FPGA memory blocks to implement logic. Previous studies have shown that this technique provides extremely dense implementations of some types of logic circuits, however, these previous studies did not evaluate the impact on power. In...
