Netlist Browser View

The Netlist Browser view’s purpose is to provide a graphical, tree-based visualization of the user’s

design hierarchy, as found in the netlist. The displayed netlist includes the results of any transformation,

legalization, etc. that have happened through the current stage in the Flow.

For large designs, there are a tremendous number of objects in the netlist. To reduce the visual noise,

the Netlist Browser contains a number of ways to ﬁlter the ﬂood of data down to just the most useful

information. These ﬁlters are enabled by default, but the user may toggle them on/off at will.

Each instance node in the tree will include the instance’s name, a colon, and then the type. Macros will

include just the macro’s name. Clock domains (only shown when Group by Clock Domain is enabled) will

include the clock domain’s name, a dash, and total counts of the number of each major logic type found

within the clock domain. Be aware that these total counts are not affected by the ﬁlters; the numbers shown

will always represent the unﬁltered total counts.

By default, the Netlist Browser view is included in the Floorplanner perspective. To add it to other

perspectives, select Window → Show View. . . → Other. . . → Achronix → Netlist Browser.
