Two design techniques are proposed for high-throughput low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoders. A broadcasting technique mitigates routing congestion by reducing the total global wirelength. An interlacing technique increases the decoder throughput by processing two consecutive frames simultaneously. The brief discusses how these techniques can be used for both fully parallel and partially parallel LDPC decoders. For fully parallel decoders with code lengths in the range of a few thousand bits, the half-broadcasting technique reduces the total global wirelength by about 26% without any hardware overhead. The block interlacing scheme is applied to the design of two fully parallel decoders, increasing the throughput by 60% and 71% at the cost of 5.5% and 9.5% gate count overhead, respectively.
