Abstract

To increase gate density, a dynamic optically reconfigurable gate array (DORGA) architecture has been proposed that uses the junction capacitance of photodiodes as dynamic memory, thereby obviating the static configuration memory. However, to date, estimation ofa perfect optically reconfigurable architecture for DORGA-VLSIs has never been presented. This paper presents a perfect DORGA architecture including a holographic memory. The performances of the DORGA architecture, in particular the reconfiguration context retention time, were analyzed experimentally. The advantages of this architecture are discussed in relation to the results of this study.
