silicon primitive的意思？

magipan

如题。谢谢！上下文如下
The choice of a processor for realizing a part of the system functionality means that the subsystem functionality will be compiled into software machine code for the corresponding processor. Conversely, the choice of application-specific hardware units implies that the functionality will be mapped into silicon primitives using synthesis tools.

拜托拜托！

應該指的是「矽晶片上的初級元件」
就是FPGA裡面的簡單邏輯閘。
