Physical synthesis addresses timing-performance issues in complex FPGAs

Higher density FPGAs present today's designers with a good-news, bad-news scenario. The good news is that the next-generation FPGAs are in the multimillion-gate range with performance well above 100 MHz, opening a whole set of applications for FPGAs, particularly multimedia- and communications-...

Zusammenfassung:Higher density FPGAs present today's designers with a good-news, bad-news scenario. The good news is that the next-generation FPGAs are in the multimillion-gate range with performance well above 100 MHz, opening a whole set of applications for FPGAs, particularly multimedia- and communications-based designs with stringent performance and time-to-market requirements. The bad news is that these new devices bring with them some serious design challenges.
