Device Resource Utilization Reports

Table 57.  Device Resource Utilization Reports Checklist
Number Done? Checklist Item
1   Review resource utilization reports after compilation.

After compilation in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition software, review the device resource utilization information to determine whether the future addition of extra logic or other design changes introduce fitting difficulties. If your compilation results in a no-fit error, resource utilization information is important so you can analyze the fitting problems in your design.

To determine resource usage, refer to the Flow Summary section of the Compilation Report for a percentage representing the total logic utilization, which includes an estimation of resources that cannot be used due to existing connections or logic use.

More detailed resource information is available by viewing the reports under Resource Section in the Fitter section of the Compilation Report. The Fitter Resource Usage Summary report breaks down the logic utilization information and indicates the usage of LEs, and provides other resource information including the number of bits in each type of memory block. There are also reports that describe some of the optimizations that occurred during compilation. For example, if you use the Intel® Quartus® Prime integrated synthesis, the reports under the Optimization Results folder in the Analysis & Synthesis section provide information, including registers that were removed during synthesis. Use this report to estimate device resource utilization for a partial design to ensure that registers were not removed due to missing connections with other parts of the design.
