T erna ry and Quaterna ry Lattice Diagrams Singapur, Septemb er 1997 4 ' $ THE GO AL OF LA TTICE DIA GRAMS The goal of Lattice Diagrams is la y out-dri ven logic synthesis � in cellula r structures with mostly lo cal connections. The concept of a lattice diagram involves three comp onents: � (1) expansion of a function (the function co rresp onds to the initial no de in the lattice), which creates several successo r no des of this no de, (2) joining of several (not necessa rily tautologic) no des of a tree level to a single no de, which is in a sense a reverse op eration to the expansion, (3) a regula r geometry to which the no des a re mapp ed, this geometry guides which no des of the level a re to b e joined. & %

Cell with inputs and outputs is said to have x � n m n m connectivit y pattern . T erna ry lattices have 3 inputs and 3 outputs from a no de. � Quaterna ry lattices have 4x4 connectivit y pattern, it means, 4 � inputs and 4 outputs from a no de. & %

I I Expansions a re: Shannon, Davio, nonsingula r, fuzzy and analog. � F o r each t yp e of expansion on no des, there exists t yp e of � joining op eration fo r no des. The p ro cedure of building the lattice diagram, i.e. the la y out of a � function, consist in expanding and joining no des in levels iteratively fo r (rep eated) va riables until all no de functions b ecome va riables o r constants. & %
