I have recently started using yosys, synthesized a DSP block with cmos_cells.lib and got following results:
ABC RESULTS: NAND cells: 2579
ABC RESULTS: NOR cells: 2771
ABC RESULTS: NOT cells: 447
ABC RESULTS: internal signals: 3728
ABC RESULTS: input signals: 133
ABC RESULTS: output signals: 128
I don't have access to commercial standard cell library at the moment, but I am trying to get an estimate of the die size for this design with, e.g., TSMC 28nm process.
I would appreciate if someone could help me with this
Thanks
There's no getting around needing a cell library for (roughly) the process you want. Once you have one, map to it and then run stat -liberty cells.lib
to calculate total cell area.
