Hi guys!
I am new here and i would like to ask how can I create blackboxes (or Hard macrocells??) in Synthesis and PnR stages. I am only asking for general guidelines as i don't want to make things much complicated for you.
So for example I have an RTL code and i want to synthesize (Design compiler) the top design but also to keep some submodules as blackboxes because i don't need them in timing analysis and also i would like to speed up the process of synthesizing. Then after I do this i want to export the netlist and import it to Encounter. At PnR stage i would like to see the black boxes so to make a better floorplan.
Any ideas?
Thank you guys.
