---|---|---|
FPGA packing and placement without routability consideration could lead to unroutable results for high-utilization designs. Conventional FPGA packing and placement approaches are shown to have severe difficulties to yield good routability. In this paper, we propose a FPGA packing and placement engine called UTPlaceF that simultaneously optimizes wirelength and routablity. A novel physical and congestion aware packing alogrithm and several congestion aware detailed placement techniques are proposed. Compared with the top 3 winners of ISPD'16 FPGA placement contest, UTPlaceF can achieve 3.3%, 7.7% and 28.3% better routed wirelength with similar or shorter runtime. |
