7 years agoIs it possible to reach nearby CLBs optimally fast while using openCL?
Hi, I am working on a research project to deepen my knowledge in parallell computing, and I have just scratched the surface of FPGA technology. To the best of my knowledge opencl is compatible ...

7 years agoHi,
If I understand you correctly, you are trying to read directly from CLB.
Let me explain how logic is implemented in FPGA.
In FPGA user logic written in (HDL language like verilog/ VHDL) or even OpenCL kernel code get implemented in CLB by Quartus. Having said that Quartus will go through Synthesis followed by Fitter stage to populate logic in CLB's. So its a netlist that is implemented in CLB's, Fitter optimizes the location to achieve performance.
I don't think you will be able to read from CLB it self, best you can do is open Chip Planner and see how logic is implemented.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Arslan
