Problem Title:
XABEL6, Foundation F1.x: EDIF netlists from XABEL in M1/F1 are encrypted.
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
XABEL6 (included with Foundation F1.x) uses EDIF netlists instead of the XNF or Plusasm netlists whi
ch were used in XACT5/6. In order to provide a keyless version of the ABEL compiler, XABEL writes ED
IF netlists with encrypted contents to protect the 3rd party vendor.
Solution 1:
In order to verify the logical interpretation of the source design, you can use the .EQ3 file produc
ed by XABEL. For a post-fit verification, the simprims-based simulation netlist can be used to ver
ify the contents of the design.
