Hello there, It was requested some time ago how to give a small quick demo of a chip design flow. Below, _briefly_ I will show you how to do so in less than 1 minute. We will demonstrate a simplified version of the AMD 2901 integrated circuit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Am2900 You will need the example "alliance-run" coming with package "alliance-doc". == Preparation == # yum install alliance-doc Copy the example to a directory of your choice: $ cp -pr /usr/share/doc/alliance-doc-5.0/alliance-run/ . $ cd alliance-run Disable the design checker, this example is very old and the technology was updated since. $ sed -i "s|\$(DRUC|#(DRUC|" Makefile == Chip design == The behavioural model of the IC is described in the file amd2901_ctl.vbe. This file undergoes several stages to refine the area and timing of the design and finally converted into hardware. In this case, we are using a technology of 1 µm. However, we also ship 7 additional technologies up to a feature size of 0.13µm (under the name of pharosc). Compile the design (one minute): $ make View the schematic: $ make view_ctl_logic (you can also open the amd2901_chip.vst, and roam through the hierarchies) View the chip : $ make graal open amd2901_chip.ap http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/images/graal.png To view the pins etc, use the peek function and select the whole chip : http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/images/graalpeek.png To simulation the chip: $ make view_chip_simulation That's it you can use this small demo during your events :) Tip: you can set the main windows below other windows in order to have the small dialog boxes on top. Right click on the window decorator -> Advanced -> Keep below others Well that's it you have a simplified version of an AMD2901 IC.
