Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to a method for generating an overall netlist (50) comprising the following steps: providing a first PLD code (24) as first netlist (26), wherein the first PLD code (24) has at least one first functional block (28), providing a second PLD code (30), wherein the second PLD code (30) has at least one second functional block (32) for alternative use instead of a corresponding first functional block (28), providing a switch PLD code (40) having at least one switch (42) assigned to the at least one first functional block (28) for connecting the first functional block (28) assigned to the switch (42), connecting the at least one second functional block (32) to one switch from the at least one switch (42) as an alternative to the corresponding first functional block (28), implementing at least one switch driving signal (44) for the at least one second functional block (32), wherein the at least one switch driving signal (44) is assigned to the corresponding switch (42) for connecting the at least one second functional block (32), creating the overall netlist (50) from the first PLD code (24), the second PLD code (30) and the switch PLD code (40), and removing from the overall netlist (50) functional first blocks (28) which are not utilized on the basis of the switch driving signal (44) of the corresponding switch (42).
