Recently, Plastic Cell Architecture (PCA) has been proposed as a hard-wired general-purpose autonomously reconfigurable processor. PCA consists of two layers, the plastic part on which sequential logic circuits are implemented, and the built-in part which induces the plastic part to dynamically reconfigure the circuits and transports messages among the circuits. The plastic part consists of an array of LUT-based reconfigurable logic primitives, each of which is connected only to adjacent ones. Combining logic and layout synthesis, we propose a new array-based algorithm to map logic functions into the PCA plastic part. This algorithm produces a folded array of sum-of-multi-input-complex-terms, especially for the PCA plastic part.
