+  Architecture with no fracturable LUTs
+
+  - 40 nm technology
+  - General purpose logic block: 
+    K = 4, N = 4
+  - Routing architecture: L = 4, fc_in = 0.15, Fc_out = 0.1
+  - Local routing: a fully connected crossbar between LEs and CLB outputs
+
+  Details on Modelling:
+
+  Based on flagship k6_frac_N10_mem32K_40nm.xml architecture.  This architecture has no fracturable LUTs nor any heterogeneous blocks.

+			     models. We are modifying the delay values however, to include metal C and R, which allows more architecture
+			     experimentation. We are also modifying the relative resistance of PMOS to be 1.8x that of NMOS
+			     (vs. Ian's 3x) as 1.8x lines up with Jeff G's data from a 45 nm process (and is more typical of 
+			     45 nm in general). I'm upping the Rmin_nmos from Ian's just over 6k to nearly 9k, and dropping 
+			     RminW_pmos from 18k to 16k to hit this 1.8x ratio, while keeping the delays of buffers approximately
+			     lined up with Stratix IV. 
+			     We are using Jeff G.'s capacitance data for 45 nm (in tech/ptm_45nm).
+			     Jeff's tables list C in for transistors with widths in multiples of the minimum feature size (45 nm).
+			     The minimum contactable transistor is 2.5 * 45 nm, so I need to multiply drive strength sizes in this file
+	                     by 2.5x when looking up in Jeff's tables.
+			     The delay values are lined up with Stratix IV, which has an architecture similar to this
+			     proposed FPGA, and which is also 40 nm 
+			     C_ipin_cblock: input capacitance of a track buffer, which VPR assumes is a single-stage

+	       We assume the first stage of the buffer is 3x min drive strength to be reasonable given the large 
+	       mux transistors, and this gives a reasonable stage ratio of a bit over 5x to the second stage. We assume
+	       the n and p transistors in the first stage are equal-sized to lower the buffer trip point, since it's fed

+	       I then took the data from Jeff G.'s PTM modeling of 45 nm to get the Cin (gate of first stage) and Cout
