FPGA TO ASIC

What is the ASIC appropriate?
500 000 XILINX spartan2 slices
 

FPGA TO ASIC

I don't think there is a xilinx sparten2 device with 500 000 slice.
You can refer to the xilinx documnet.
 

Re: FPGA TO ASIC

This is a theoretical question.
500 slices of my projects, but the core should ASIC 1000.
 

Sonaj,

There is no ASIC appropriate or a conversion formula for ASIC to FPGA. In ASIC, the gate count depends on the target library you are using. I say this as target library because, here we express Gate count in terms NAND gate area.

So we cannot perfectly map any FPGA based slice count to ASIC gate area.
Yes, its true that you can have an approximate gate count for your target design.

Hope it helps.

ok.

But to me there is a Verilog code, and want to know how many require gate?
Let's say a standard cell technology,
