Product Line: Synplicity

Product Part: Synplify

Product Version: 5.0

Problem Title:
NGDBUILD: ERROR:based:58 - On or above line 890 in file "repic.edf" with Synplify netlist


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
When targeting XC5200 family using Synplicity 5.0.8 or earlier, the
following error may occur in NGDBUILD:

ERROR:based:58 - On or above line 890 in file "repic.edf": Bad portRef "I5" in
    net "U2_inst_repic_code_slow_flashZ0". This likely means that the EDIF
    netlist was improperly written. Please contact the vendor of the program
    that produced this EDIF file.


Solution 1:

This happens if SYNPLIFY generates an EDIF as a netlist.

Workaround is to use XNF instead of EDIF for 5K flow.
