Abstract As a programmable logic device, Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA)has evolved from merely a peripheral component in an electronic design to become a core processing element of digital systems over the last two decades. It finds extensive applications in many fields, such as computer hardware, communication, aviation, spaceflight and automobile-electronics, etc. The FPGA chip design research achieves a significant progress with the advance of semi-conductor technologies. This survey reviews the past history, presents status and future trend in the ever quest for high performance FPGAs.
