Description
Summary:This research paper focuses on the development of an Automatic Place and Route (APR) methodology for the RISC-V processor design using the IC Compiler tool. The proposed methodology is aimed at achieving good Quality of Results (QoR) for different technology nodes, including 32nm and 90nm. The paper provides a detailed analysis of the QoR obtained for each technology node and compares the results obtained with each other. On top of that, the effect of clock period on the design quality is also analyzed. The methodology used for the design flow and the physical implementation process of the design using IC Compiler are all explained in detail. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology in achieving good QoR for RISC-V processor designs.
