摘要:
A method for designing a system on a target device includes entering the system. The system is synthesized. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. The system is routed. Physical synthesis is performed on the system immediately after more than one of the entering, synthesizing, mapping, placing and routing procedures.

A method for designing a system on a target device includes synthesizing the system. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. Physical synthesis is performed on the system by identifying a plurality of register retiming solutions for each register in the system, performing combinational resynthesis on each of the register retiming solutions, and selecting a combinational resynthesis solution for the system.

A method for designing a system on a target device includes synthesizing the system. The system is mapped. The system is placed on the target device. The system is routed. Physical synthesis is performed on the system where a first descendant thread is spawned to run in parallel with an existing thread where the first descendant thread is executing a different optimization strategy than the existing thread but on a same netlist as the existing thread.

Integrated circuits may communicate with off-chip memory. Such types of integrated circuits may include memory interface circuitry that is used to interface with the off-chip memory. The memory interface circuitry may be calibrated using a procedure that includes read calibration, write leveling, read latency tuning, and write calibration. Read calibration may serve to ensure proper gating of data strobe signals and to center the data strobe signals with respect to read data signals. Write leveling ensures that the data strobe signals are aligned to system clock signals. Read latency tuning serves to adjust read latency to ensure optimum read performance. Write calibration may serve to center the data strobe signals with respect to write data signals. These calibration operations may be used to calibrate memory systems supporting a variety of memory communications protocols.

Integrated circuits such as programmable integrated circuits may include calibration circuitry for calibrating memory interface circuitry. The calibration circuitry may include processing circuitry and test circuitry. The processing circuitry may provide instructions to the test circuitry and direct the test circuitry to begin processing at a selected instruction. The test circuitry may retrieve data storage addresses and control signal storage addresses from the instructions. The test circuitry may use the data storage address to retrieve test data from data storage circuitry and may use the control signal storage address to retrieve control signal data from control signal storage circuitry. The control signal, address, and test data may be provided to the memory interface circuitry. The test circuitry may verify data received from the system memory during instruction processing.
