Detailed placement takes the design from the initial global placement to a fully-placed design, generally starting with the largest structures (which serve as good anchors) down to the smallest. The detail placement process begins by placing large macros such as multi-column URAM, block RAM, and DSP block arrays, followed by LUTRAM array macros, and smaller macros such as user-defined XDC Macros. Logic placement is iterated to optimize wirelength, timing, and congestion. LUT-FF pairs are packed into CLBs with the additional constraints that registers in the CLB must share common control sets.
