Design hierarchy in Encounter

Aram Shahinyan

Dear Friends,

I have a block with the same structure (sub module) repeating many times. I have done manual placement & routing for one slice

and saved a design.

Now I need to instantiate and use a hand made slice many times (just like instantiating in layout editor)

Any ideas how I can do that?

Thanks in Advance,

Aram

  • if your top-level netlist has this block's module instantiated several times, then once instance will be the master partition and the rest will be the clones. then you just design this block once (like you already have) and it is repeated at the top-level. As for the actual partitioning process and assigning the master, please check the EDI User Guide (See the chapter called "Partitioning the Design" and the section called "Specifying Multiple Instantiated Partitions and Blackboxes".)
