view of constant_block which was recently merged into the repository.
The constant_block instance positions and connections were modified
slightly to avoid routing over obstruction areas.
fork of caravel (layout .mag file not copied into this commit).
The layouts of both chip_io and chip_io_alt are believed to be
complete, but need verification (with LVS).
includes RTL change inside the padframe definition to remove one
previously unnoticed hard-wired connection between VDDIO and a
3.3V domain digital input pin.
* Effectively reverted the change to add spare logic blocks near each
of the GPIO control blocks by changing the definition of
NUM_SPARE_BLOCKS to 4 (the original number of spare logic blocks)
for both caravel and caravan top level RTL verilog modules.
* Apply automatic changes to Manifest and README.rst

- rtl updated
~ add one column to the right to pass placement congestion
~ density adjusted (probably has no effect)
+ manually add isosubstrate layer in mag and gds from older iterations
!important still need to run dynamic simulations
!important depends on some updates to openlane
!important need to be able to recreate using newer openlane versions
* Added enough spare logic blocks to have the existing four above
the processor, plus one each per GPIO (38 for caravel, 27 for
caravan).

* Removed the SRAM read-only interface by wrapping all related code
in an ifdef for "USE_SRAM_RO_INTERFACE", which is undefined.
