This paper proposes a fast depth-constrained technology mapping algorithm f
or logic-blocks composed of tree-structured lookup tables. First, we propos
e a technology mapping algorithm which minimizes the number of logic-blocks
if an input Boolean network is a tree. Second, we propose a technology map
ping algorithm which minimizes logic depth for any input Boolean network. F
inally, we combine those two technology mapping algorithms and propose an a
lgorithm which realizes technology mapping whose depth is bounded by a give
n upper bound d(c). Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and
efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
