How this works
Usable target = floor(available × (1 − reserve / 100)). Shortfall = max(0, required − usable).
FPGA selection / T003
FPGA resource budget
Check a design quantity against a capacity target with reserved headroom.

Calculation & record
Review before use
The report records the tool version and calculation time. Project enquiry opens a separate form for your review; it does not submit automatically.
03 / METHOD & VERIFICATION
Understand the result.
Method version 1 · 2026-09-27
FPGA.io planning aid. Arithmetic and checklist output do not replace device documentation, a design tool or engineering approval.
Inputs and limits
Whole quantities: 0–1,000,000,000; available at least 1; reserve: 0–90%. Quantities must use the same definition.
Verification example
10,000 available, 8,500 required, 20% reserve → 8,000 target and 500 shortfall.
Use the example inputs to inspect how the method behaves. This is a reference calculation, not a hardware test.
