Extracting FPGA architecture file from Chip Planner

[dj-park]

I am playing around with Agilex device(AGRB014R24A3E3VR0).

I found that the device looks really regular; the left three clock sectors are

almost identical and the right three clock sectors are almost identical.

Is there any way to extract resource composition from Chip Planner?

For instance, I noticed that there's "Find" functionality that if I try to find

"LAB*", it outputs all the LABs. I wonder if there's way to export this find output

as a file.

Also, I guess there should be some hardware architecture file for all the devices.

If I can extract resource distribution for a certain device from such file,

that would be helpful too.

Thanks.

Hi,

The general architecture description for a device is provided in the documentation for the device and there is a whole bunch of them based on which type of resource you are looking for. For Agilex 7, please refer to the following documentation page:

https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/products/details/fpga/agilex/7/docs.html

Feel free to apply filter based on the area of documentation. 

You can find information on where each of you design block is placed from the _fit.rpt.

Thanks for the reply.

My question was, how can we extract resource composition of a specific device.

Below is a screenshot of a sample Agilex 7 series device, and the resource columns(from left to right) are 

HSSI AIBND RX, LAB, LAB, LAB, LAB, M20K, LAB, and so on.

I wonder if there's a way to extract this info without hand-extracting from the Chip Planner.

I found the "Find" functionality above is useful. Is there any way to export the results to a file and run the "Find" command in tcl?

Sorry, there isn't any such option available to export the information from Chipplanner.

Thanks for the reply.

It's sad that what we can easily get from the gui isn't available as a script ;-(

The feature should be really useful to analyze the device.
