    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing physical synthesis with an overall placement process. One of the methods includes receiving an initial netlist of a circuit design for an IC. A global placement process is performed that assigns to some components in the initial netlist a respective initial location on the IC. One or more physical synthesis processes are performed to generate a modified netlist before assigning a final location to all components in the circuit design by an overall placement process. A subsequent placement process is performed to assign a final location on the IC to all components in the modified netlist.

    Abstract: In an approach for processing a circuit design by a programmed processor, a placed circuit design that has been placed on programmable resources of a programmable integrated circuit (IC) is input. A critical path is determined from a first sequential element to a second sequential element assigned to the placed circuit design. A first clock buffer that provides a clock signal to the first and second sequential elements is determined, and an unused clock buffer is selected based on proximity to the first sequential element. The circuit design is modified to include the unused clock buffer as a second clock buffer coupled to receive a clock signal in parallel with the first clock buffer and to provide a clock signal to the first sequential element.

    Abstract: Aspects of processing a circuit design include synthesizing the circuit design and placing elements of the synthesized circuit design. After placing and before routing, respective delay values and slacks are determined. A first path having a most negative slack is determined and a first group of candidate paths is selected. The first group of candidate paths is a subset of critical paths of the circuit design, and the first group of candidate paths have delay values within a threshold range of delay values from the delay value of the first path. The first group of candidate paths are modified to reduce the respective delay values and a second group of candidate paths is selected. The second group of candidate paths have circuit structures that match selected circuit structures and are modified to reduce the respective delay values. A critical path having a most negative slack is iteratively selected and modified to reduce the respective delay value.

    Abstract: A processor-implemented method is provided for placing and routing a circuit design. A first netlist is generated for the circuit design. Placement is performed for the first netlist on a target programmable integrated circuit (IC) to produce a first placed design. A set of optimizations are performed on the first placed design. The set of optimizations are recorded in an optimization history file. One or more optimizations specified in the optimization history file are performed on the first netlist to produce a second netlist that is different than the first netlist. Placement is performed for the second netlist on the target programmable IC to produce a second placed design that is different than the first placed design. Nets of the second placed design are routed to produce a placed and routed circuit design.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for implementing a circuit design are provided. A physical description is generated corresponding to a predefined physical layout of a programmable integrated circuit. The circuit design includes a memory block. A timing analysis is executed to determine a first timing profile of the physical description. The physical description is optimized (or at least altered), and a physical implementation is generated based on the optimized physical description. Optimizing the physical description includes: selectively moving from or into the memory block of the physical description a register in response to an attribute of the memory block; executing a timing analysis to determine a second timing profile of the physical description with the register moved from or into the memory block of the physical description; comparing the first and second timing profiles; and selectively accepting or reversing the moving based on the comparison of the first and second timing profiles.

    Abstract: Physical optimization for timing closure for an integrated circuit includes processing a circuit design at least partially through a design flow to a late stage of the design flow. Using a processor, a baseline delay is calculated for each of a plurality of paths of the circuit design. A slack for each of the plurality of paths is determined. Physical optimization further includes selecting a path of the circuit design that meets a selection criterion according, at least in part, to the slack of the path, applying, using the processor, a physical optimization to the selected path resulting in an optimized path, and calculating a delay of the optimized path. The optimized path is incorporated into the circuit design only responsive to determining that the delay of the optimized path is less than the baseline delay of the selected path.
