VERI-Place Algorithm

Software for accurate Soft-Error effects analysis and mitigation on Xilinx SRAM-based FPGAs. The tool performs the Soft-Error Analysis and the Placement of circuits on SRAM-based FPGAs oriented to the Soft-Error mitigation. A free DEMO executable version of VERI-Place tuned for the Xilinx Virtex-5 Genesys board (XCV5-VLX50T) is available for download. Download version v.6.0 - 12.06.2014



The software last release ( algorithm v.8.0 ) is available for various FPGAs upon user request and agreement. The following devices are nowadays available:

- Virtex5 xc5vlx50t-ff1136-2 release date 10.05.2014

SETA algorithm

The Single Event Transient Analyzer (SETA) is a software for the analysis and mitigation of SET effects on ASIC and Flash-based FPGAs. The software is compatible with Microsemi Flash-based FPGAs. A version compatible with ProASIC A3P family is available for download upon user request and agreement.

PDT FPGA model

The (Politecnico Di Torino) PDT FPGA model is a fully parametric FPGA model that can be tuned on the basis of the logic and routing resources requirement. Look-Up Tables (LUTs), Flip-Flops (FFs), internal RAM, DSP cores and routing resources can be defined by the user. A complete tool chain is available (PDD Placement and Routing).
An image example of a placed and routed design is available here
A Synopsys Synplify compatible version is available for download upon user request and agreement.

GDS-II VLSI compatible Router Algorithm

It is an ASIC oriented routing tool compatible with the GDS-II VLSI standard. The tool is usable for radiation-sensitivity analysis, simulations, performances analysis and improvements.
An image example of an ASIC routed design is available here
A Synopsys Synplify compatible version is available for download upon user request and agreement.

HPC-driven Placement Algorithm

It is a GPGPU oriented placement tool compatible with the IBM layout standard. The tool has been successfully used to implement the IBM Superblue16 and Superblue 19.
A Cadence compatible version is available for download upon user request and agreement.
