Xilinx Interconnects/Routing

Started by Unknown February 2, 2007
Hey All...

Is there a way to decode the interconnect/Routing algorithm used by
Xilinx????  I see that the XDL file gives information on the routing
details. However, the interconnect/Routing details are given as
numbers. Also,
It gives info on PIPs, but I really dunno how to decode it. Could
somebody help me out.....

Thanx in advance!

Mr.B

I want to know it too.
This is a very complicated subject, with many hundred man-years of
development behind it.
Tell us:
Why do you want to know, or why do you need to know?

I know It is way too complicated..... :-) I am working on partial reconfiguration ryte now....my prof wanted me to dig deep dwn into it......if I get to know abt the routing details, I may b able to work on different benchmark ckts.... Thank you pete..... Mr.B

Hey Pete... Could u plz tel me watz happening wid the XDL file.... Thanks in Advance Mr.B
Well, it's polite enough, but look at that spelling...
What did I spend 20 years in school for?

Hey all, Lets not keep arguing abt the spellings and other stuffs in here. No offence JB!!!!!! Lets learn something. Anyways, I am sorry if I was disrespectful to anyone. Please let us know something about the routing details(If at all someone knew). Mr.B
Yes I am, and proud of it  :-)
Somebody has to hold up the banner of this language,
even if it takes an immigrant to do it !

As I mentioned before, the routing structure is the result of over a thousand man-years of development effort, not something that is easily explained on a newsgroup. But the real question had to do with partial reconfiguration, and I will dig up a few references to that. Peter ==============
