Chapter 3. Concepts

Post-PnR Buffer Limit

max postpnr buffer limit

This limit specifies the maximum
number of post-placement buffers
that can be inserted.

Post-PnR Rewiring

postpnr rewire

If turned on, allows post-pnr
rewiring to better the design
performance and resource usage.

Placement Effort

placement effort

Low effort placement will have a
shorter runtime, but may yield less
design QoR than High effort
placement. High effort placement
increases placement runtime to
further optimize the design QoR if
possible.

PnR Seed

seed

The place and route seed is used to
initialize random number state in
the place and route algorithms.
