High temperature adversely impacts on reliability, performance, and leakage power of ICs. In behavioral synthesis, both resource usage allocation and resource binding influence the final thermal profile. Previous thermal-aware behavioral syntheses only focused on binding, ignoring allocation. This paper proposes thermal-aware behavioral synthesis with resource usage allocation. According to power density and feedbacks from thermal simulation, we allocate the number of resources under area constraint. Our flow effectively controls peak temperature and creates even power densities among resources of ldquodifferentrdquo and ldquosamerdquo types. Compared to classic behavioral synthesis of peak temperature control, our technique reduces peak temperature by 11.1degC on average with no area overhead and only 1.2 more steps latency overhead.
