* Package name : arachne-pnr Version : 0~20150927gitefdb026 Upstream Author : Cotton Seed <cot...@alum.mit.edu> * URL : https://github.com/cseed/arachne-pnr * License : GPL Programming Lang: C++ Description : Place and route tool for FGPAs Arachne-pnr implements the place and route step of the hardware compilation process for FPGAs. It accepts as input a technology-mapped netlist in BLIF format, as output by the Yosys synthesis suite for example. It currently targets the Lattice Semiconductor iCE40 family of FPGAs. Its output is a textual bitstream representation for assembly by the IceStorm icepack command. The output of icepack is a binary bitstream which can be uploaded to a harware device. Together, Yosys, arachne-pnr and IceStorm provide an fully open-source Verilog-to-bistream tool chain for iCE40 1K and 8K FPGA development. I plan to maintain the package in the Debian Science just as the qflow packages (yosys etc.) Cheers
