Understanding Slot Dimensions

Each slot has three important size measurements:

 ◄─────────── DIE SIZE ──────────────────►
   ◄────── USABLE SILICON ────────────►
      ◄────── CORE SIZE ───────────►
Die Size
The actual physical silicon dimensions. This is the total area of the chip including all peripheral structures.
Usable Silicon
The die size minus the seal ring (26µm on each edge). The seal ring protects the chip from damage during dicing and provides a moisture barrier. This is the area available inside the seal ring.
Core Area
The usable design area inside the IO ring. This is where your digital logic, analog circuits, and other design elements are placed. The IO ring contains the pad cells that connect your design to the outside world.
3-Side Slot Configurations

Available Slots

Half-sized variants of the 1×1 slot. One edge is a bare cut edge with no IO pads, so the padring covers only three sides.

Exact 3-Side Slot Configurations

Available Slots

Exact-pad variants of the 3-side slots. Every retained signal/power pad is pinned (via a custom PAD_CFG) to the exact (x, y) it occupies in a real slot_1x1 build, so a design drops into the half/quarter slot with slot_1x1-compatible pad placement.

Exact-Pad 3-Side Verification

slot_1x1 vs Exact 3-Side Pad Overlay

The *_3side_exact configs pin every retained signal/power pad (via a custom PAD_CFG) to the exact (x, y) it occupies in a real slot_1x1 build. Below, blue = slot_1x1 pads, red outline = the exact 3-side pads. Every red box bounds its blue pad with a verified 0.0 µm offset; blue-only pads sit across the bare cut edge and are intentionally dropped.

0.5×1 3-side EXACT (half width, east edge is the bare cut)

0p5x1_3side_exact overlay

1×0.5 3-side EXACT (half height, north edge is the bare cut)

Advanced Slot Configurations

IO Configuration Options

Each slot can be configured with different IO pad densities and edge arrangements to suit your design needs.

Pad Density Modes

Choose how many IO pads you need:

Default (def)
Standard configuration with mixed pad types: bidirectional, input-only, and analog pads. Best for typical designs that need different pad characteristics.
Maximum (max)
Maximum number of pads possible for the slot size. All signal pads are bidirectional for maximum flexibility.
1x1 Spacing (spc)
Same pad spacing as the full 1x1 slot. Useful for maintaining consistent pad pitch across different slot sizes.
1x1 Count (num)
Same total pad count as the reference 1x1 slot. Ensures IO count compatibility when migrating designs.

Edge Configurations

Choose which edges have IO pads based on your slot position on the wafer:

All Edges (all)
IO pads on all four sides. Standard configuration for standalone designs.
Top Only (top)
IO pads only on the north edge. Ideal for slots positioned at the bottom of a multi-slot arrangement.
Left Only (lft)
IO pads only on the west edge. Ideal for slots positioned on the right side.
Horizontal (hor)
IO pads on north and south edges only. For slots that will connect to neighbors on left and right.
Vertical (ver)
IO pads on east and west edges only. For slots that will connect to neighbors above and below.
NW Corner (nwc)
IO pads on north and west edges. For slots positioned in the southeast corner of an arrangement.
SE Corner (sec)
IO pads on south and east edges. For slots positioned in the northwest corner of an arrangement.

Configuration Naming

Configurations are named using the pattern: {{slot}}_{{density}}_{{edges}}

Example: 0p5x0p5_max_all = 0.5×0.5 slot, maximum pads, all edges
