Once you load a design that includes dynamic reconfiguration groups, Tile
Interface Planner displays the tile location of the dynamically reconfigurable IP instances
and related building blocks. You can dynamically assign the tile location of IP instances
within each dynamic reconfiguration group, and place other IP components in relation to the
dynamic reconfiguration group. When placing other components, Tile Interface Planner takes all
of the dynamic reconfiguration group placements into account.
Reconfiguration Groups Tree View
The Reconfiguration Groups view
shows the members and placement of the dynamic reconfiguration groups that you create. Use
the Reconfiguration Groups view to select the dynamic
reconfiguration group that you want to assign. You can only modify the DR groupings in Tile
Assignment Editor, not in Tile Interface Planner.
To assign DR groups to tile locations, follow
these steps:
-
Define one or more dynamic reconfiguration groups, as Defining a Dynamic Reconfiguration Group describes.
-
To run Logic Generation, double-click Logic Generation on the Compilation Dashboard.
-
To start Tile Interface Planner, click the Tile Interface
Planner icon on Compilation Dashboard, as Step 2: Initialize Tile Interface Planner
describes.
-
In Tile Interface Planner, click the Plan tab. Tile Interface Planner displays the dynamic reconfiguration IP
profiles in the Design Element hierarchy.
-
Select an instance in the Reconfiguration Groups tree view, the
selection synchronizes with the selection in the Design Elements
lists.

-
Click the
button next to the Design
Element to display a list of Legal
Locations for the selected DR group.
-
Double-click any location in Legal
Locations to place the element in a legal location. Tile Interface Planner
places the IP in the legal location on the device tile.
Note: When you place
or unplace any member IPs of a multirate DR group, Tile Interface Planner also
appropriately places or unplaces the children and sibling IPs in the DR group
automatically. You can then expand and refine the placement of member IPs
individually.
-
Place other IP components in relation to
the
DR group location, as Placing IP Components describes. Tile Interface Planner takes the dynamic reconfiguration
group placement into account when you place other IP components.
