| Abstract | An Application Specific Inflexible FPGA (ASIF) is an FPGA with reduced flexibility that can implement a set of application circuits which will operate at different times. Application circuits are initially placed and routed on an FPGA in such a way that the total routing switches used in the FPGA architecture are minimized. Later all unused routing resources are removed from the FPGA to generate an ASIF. An ASIF which is reduced from a heterogeneous FPGA (i.e. containing hard-blocks such as Multipliers, Adders and RAMS etc) is called as a Heterogeneous-ASIF. This work shows that a standard-cell based Heterogeneous-ASIF using Multipliers, Adders and Look-Up-Tables for a set of 10 opencores application circuits is 85% smaller in area than a single driver FPGA using the same type of blocks, and only 24% larger than the sum of areas of their standard-cell based ASIC version. If the Look-Up-Tables are replaced with a set of repeatedly used hard logic gates (such as AND gate, OR gate, FLIP-FLOPS etc), the ASIF becomes 89% smaller than the FPGA and 3% smaller than the sum of ASICs. The area gap between ASIF and sum of ASICs can be further reduced if repeatedly used groups of standard-cell logic gates in an ASIF are designed in full-custom. One of the major advantages of an ASIF is that just like an FPGA, an ASIF can also be reprogrammed to execute new or modified circuits, but at a very limited scale. A new CAD flow is presented to map application circuits on an ASIF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
