摘要： A PLD utilizes a heterogeneous architecture to reduce power consumption of its active resources. The PLD's programmable resources are divided into a first partition and a second partition, where the resources of the first partition are optimized for low power consumption and the resources of the second partition are optimized for high performance. Portions of a user design containing non-critical timing paths are mapped to and implemented by the resources of the power-optimized first partition, and portions of the user design containing critical timing paths are mapped to and implemented by the resources of the performance-optimized second partition.

摘要： A computer-implemented method of balancing logic resource usage in a circuit design for a programmable logic device (PLD) can include determining that an assignment of elements of the circuit design to a first type of logic resource of the PLD is unbalanced compared to an assignment of elements of the circuit design to an alternate type of logic resource of the PLD. An Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation specifying a balanced assignment of elements to the first and alternate types of logic resources can be generated. A solution for the ILP formulation can be obtained. Selected elements of the circuit design can be re-mapped from the first type of logic resource to the alternate type of logic resource according to the solution of the ILP formulation and the circuit design specifying the re-mapped elements can be output.

摘要： A computer-implemented method of balancing logic resource usage in a circuit design for a programmable integrated circuit (IC) includes determining that an assignment of elements of the circuit design to a first type of logic resource is unbalanced compared to an assignment of elements to an alternate type of logic resource. Binary variables are defined for circuit elements assigned to the first and alternate types of logic resources, where each binary variable indicates whether the associated circuit element is to be re-assigned to the first or alternate type of logic resource. Constraints are defined specifying relationships among selected variables. Values for the variables are obtained according to the constraints by minimizing a function dependent on a sum of the binary variables. Circuit elements are re-assigned to the first or alternate types of logic resources according to the values determined for the binary variables, and the circuit design is output.

摘要： Methods of routing user designs in programmable logic devices (PLDs) having heterogeneous routing structures, i.e., PLDs including both high-power and low-power interconnect resources. A first pass routing step is performance-based, e.g., utilizes a cost function biased towards the high-power interconnect resources. The first routed design is then evaluated to identify non-critical nets in the first routed design that can yield the most power-saving benefit by being retargeted to the low-power interconnect resources. For example, a sorted list of nets can be created in which the identified nets are evaluated based on the capacitance per load pin of each net. A second pass routing step is then performed, e.g., rerouting the nets identified as being non-critical and having the greatest potential power-saving benefit. In some embodiments, the permitted increase in the delay of each rerouted net is bound by the slack of the net as routed in the first routed design.
