Record #977
Product Family: Software
Product Line: XACT FPGA
Product Part: floorplanner-XACT
Product Version: 6.0.1
Problem Title:
FLOORPLANNER-XACT: Unable to load file <design>.lca / FPLAN : ERROR 1576 : Error in LCA file
Problem Description:
Urgency: Low
ca file appears to be correct (ie. passes DRC, able to make bitstream, able to load design in editLC
A). When entering the floorplanner the <design>.map file is read in without any problems, but when
attempting to Read Placed Design floorplanner reports :
Unable to load file <design>.lca
Upon further investigation into the fplan.log file, the following error is reported :
*** FPLAN: ERROR 1576:
Error in LCA file: Block in Intnet statement is not previously defined,
or the statement does not contain one of the following: {F, G, H, PAD,
M, QY, QX}
on line <line number> of file "<design>.lca"
"<Line in .lca file>"
-------------------^
This is an internal error; please contact Xilinx support personnel.
A possible cause of this error is a pad or net with one of the following names : TCK, TDI, TMS, MD0,
MD1, MD2, or TDO. Also can be caused if a bus is labeled MD[x:0].
These are special purpose input/output pad names and may cause problems with floorplanner if a net i
n the design has one or more of these names.
Solution 1:
Change the name of any nets in the design with the following names : TCK, TDI, TMS, MD0, MD1, MD2, T
DO or buses labeled MD[x:0]. Please follow standard naming conventions outlined in the XACT manuals
when changing net names.
