nextpnr-ice40-qt 0.3-2 (ppc64el binary) in ubuntu lunar
FPGA are computer chips that have parts of their logics dependent on
parameters that can be set after production, i.e., that can be programmed.
To map a problem to an FPGA, a program must first be broken down to a
series of logic elements and their connections, which is performed by
a compiler like yosys. Downstream from there nextpnr takes over and decides
what exact logic cell should be used that is on the chip.
.
nextpnr is a FPGA place and route tool, taking an FPGA model specific
topological description of the hardware to be realised and produces a
gate-level description with logic and it's connections mapped onto onto
specific hardwired functional units using a propagation timing-based
algorithm. Analysing the fully implemented design for proper operation at
speed is also supported using timing-analysis.
.
nextpnr-ice40 supports the Lattice iCE40 series of FPGAs and uses the
hardware description chipdb from the fpga-icestorm package.
.
This package supports both the GUI and command-line interfaces. A slimmer
command-line only version is available in the nextpnr-ice40 package.
