RPack: Routability-driven Packing Algorithm for Cluster-based FPGAs
Routing tools consume a signiicant portion of the total design time. Considering routability at earlier steps of the CAD ow would both yield better quality and faster design process. In this paper we are presenting a routability-driven clustering method for cluster-based FPGAs. Our method packs LUTs into logic clusters while incorporating routability metrics into a cost function. The objective ...
متن کاملSwitch Bound Allocation for Maximizing Routability in Timing-Driven Routing for FPGAs
In segmented channel routing of row-based FPGAs, the routability and interconnection delays depend on the choice of the upper bounds on the number of programmable switches used in routing net segments in the channel. Traditionally, the upper bounds for the net segments in the same channel are set uniformly. In this paper, we present algorithms for determining the upper bounds for all net segmen...
متن کاملSimultaneous Timing Driven Clustering and Placement for FPGAs
Traditional placement algorithms for FPGAs are normally carried out on a fixed clustering solution of a circuit. The impact of clustering on wirelength and delay of the placement solutions is not well quantified. In this paper, we present an algorithm named SCPlace that performs simultaneous clustering and placement to minimize both the total wirelength and longest path delay. We also incorpora...
متن کاملRippleFPGA: Routability-Driven Simultaneous Packing and Placement for Modern FPGAs
As a good trade-off between CPU and ASIC, FPGA is becoming more widely used in both industry and academia. The increasing complexity and scale of modern FPGA, however, impose great challenges on the FPGA placement and packing problem. In this paper, we propose RippleFPGA to solve the packing and placement simultaneously through a set of novel techniques, such as (i) smooth stair-step flow, (ii)...
