Hello,
I have a rather large design for a XC95288XL which consumes 276 macrocells of 288 possible. Since Xilinx seems to prefer Coolrunner devices to the good old XC9500's I tried to stuff the design into a Coolrunner II chip to look how it would behave.
However, I was not able to make it fit even in a 512 macrocell device. Timing should not be so tight, it has to run at 8 MHz clock, but the timing analyzer gives me 17-18 MHz on the slowest 10 ns device.
Can anybody which know's the XCR2 better than me give me a hit where to pay attention? How can I see from the report where the fitter has a problem?
Thanky you very much
