In general-synchronous framework, in which the clock is distributed periodically to each register but not necessarily simultaneously, circuit performance is expected to be improved compared to complete-synchronous framework, in which the clock is distributed periodically and simultaneously to each register. To improve the circuit performance more, logic synthesis for general-synchronous framework is required. In this paper, under the assumption that any clock schedule is realized by an ideal clock distribution circuit, when two or more cell libraries are available, a technology mapping method which assigns a cell to each gate in the given logic circuit by using integer linear programming is proposed. In experiments, we show the effectiveness of the proposed technology mapping method.
