Hi all,
I need some advice on how to treat the "equivalent gate count" issue. I have to make a presentation on something soon, where FPGAs are the initial foundation of the project, and I anticipate having to provide some correlation between "slices" and "gates" as an estimate to the capacity of current-generation FPGAs.
Ideally I would provide a slice and logic area estimate for the specific design, but the design is not nearly complete enough to provide such reliable estimates. For now, I have to arm-wave it. I don't need it to be vendor-neutral though, I can be Xilinx specific. Any suggestions anyone?
