ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for implementing a circuit design for at least one integrated circuit on a circuit board is described. In one example, a logical description of the circuit design is obtained. For example, a functional description of the circuit design may be synthesized to produce the logical description. Logical pins in the logical description are assigned to input/output (I/O) elements of the at least one integrated circuit, and the logical description is placed and routed for the at least one integrated circuit, based on external constraint data associated with the circuit board and internal logic constraint data associated with each of the at least one integrated circuit.
