Dive Into Details

01

Algorithm Analysis and Specification

  • Understanding the algorithm's requirements, constraints, and performance metrics is crucial for successful FPGA implementation. At ChipXPRT, we conduct a thorough analysis to identify critical performance parameters and resource requirements, ensuring an optimal approach tailored specifically for FPGA deployment. Our deep understanding of algorithmic complexities allows us to foresee potential challenges and address them proactively.

02

Design Entry

  • The design entry phase involves converting the algorithm into a hardware description using Hardware Description Languages (HDL) such as VHDL or Verilog, or through schematic capture for simpler designs. Our team excels in both methodologies, providing flexible solutions that match the project's specific needs. We leverage advanced tools to streamline the design entry process, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.

03

RTL Design and Simulation

  • Creating Register-Transfer Level (RTL) models and simulating them to verify functionality is essential before proceeding to synthesis. ChipXPRT utilizes industry-leading simulation tools like ModelSim and VCS to perform detailed functional and timing simulations, ensuring the design meets all functional requirements. Our simulation process helps in identifying and rectifying issues early, reducing risks in later stages.

04

Synthesis

  • Synthesis translates the RTL code into a gate-level netlist optimized for the target FPGA technology. Our extensive experience with synthesis tools from Cadence, Synopsys, and Mentor Graphics ensures that the design is efficiently mapped to FPGA resources, optimizing for performance, power, and area (PPA). We focus on minimizing logic and enhancing speed, ensuring that the synthesized design is both compact and efficient.

05

Implementation

  • This phase involves placing and routing the netlist onto the FPGA fabric, which includes translating the design, mapping it to FPGA resources, and routing interconnections. ChipXPRT's expertise in precise placement and routing using vendor-specific tools ensures minimal signal delay and optimal resource utilization. Our careful planning and execution in this phase guarantee that the design's timing and resource constraints are met.

06

FPGA Programming and Configuration

  • Generating the bitstream file and programming the FPGA is a critical step. We handle the generation of configuration files and ensure accurate programming using advanced tools, providing a seamless transition from design to hardware. Our meticulous approach to configuration ensures that the FPGA operates exactly as intended, with no unexpected behavior.

07

Verification and Debugging

  • Verification and debugging ensure the programmed FPGA functions correctly in a real hardware environment. Our comprehensive strategy includes both simulation-based and hardware-based testing. We use logic analyzers and other debugging tools to fine-tune the design on actual hardware, ensuring robust and reliable FPGA solutions. Our commitment to thorough verification means that we catch and resolve issues before they become problems, ensuring a smooth deployment.
