Foundation XVHDL, NGDBuild: Warning:basnu-The input pad net "<nonclk signal>" is driving one or more clock loads, but is not using a dedicated clock buffer


Record #3145

Product Family: Software

Product Line: Metamor

Product Part: Foundation XVHDL

Product Version: 3.02

Problem Title:
Foundation XVHDL, NGDBuild: Warning:basnu-The input pad net "<nonclk signal>" is driving one
or more clock loads, but is not using a dedicated clock buffer



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:

NGDBUILD may give the following warnings/error:

"WARNING:basnu - Multiple blocks named "view_1/<nonclk_port>"
in block "<vhdl file>".

WARNING:basnu - The input pad net "<nonclk_port>" is driving
one or more clock loads, but is not using a dedicated clock
buffer.


ERROR: basnu - logical net "<nonclk_port>" has both active and
tristate drivers"
or,
"ERROR: basnu - logical net "<nonclk_port>" has multiple
drivers"

when instantiating IBUFs and BUFGs with VHDL in Foundation.


Solution 1:

One cause of this problem is not using upper-case to declare the
component and the ports on the instantiated components.

IE:

component BUFGS
    port(I:in bit;
      O:out bit);
end component;
