Hi,

Block-Level Design is nothing but Flat Design which is without a hierarchy i,e, without sub modules or blocks.

Top-Level or Full chip is one which is a integration of modules or blocks. This obviously will consume more run time and memory consequently more area and power.

Thanks,

Re: Full-chip and block

I am not asking about flat level design & hierarchy level design.I am asking about differences between implimentation of full chip and block.Because I worked for block.But I want to know full details about each stage implementation of full chip.

Then go through Blast Plan Pro Ducumentation. U will how hierarachial design is implemented in Blast-Plan Pro. Go through the flow of Blast Plan pro in Molten. U will get better picture. Hope this helps.

Re: Full-chip and block

you may divide your design into several module according to different function,
we can treated one function module as a block, and all function module as Full-Chip
