Problem Title:
TRCE/Timing Analyzer 2.1i: Elements are analyzed by Period and not FROM:THRU:TO
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
Elements are showing up in the Period constraint
and not in the FROM:THRU:TO. Why is this
happening?
Solution 1:
These particular constraints are an exception that
cannot be honored due to overlapping timegroup
definitions interacting such that the FROM:THRU:TO
constraints doesn't appear to be a subset of the
period constraint to the tools.
This involves a slow exception of intersecting paths
(where no proper subset condition exists due to
interactions with other constraints).
So, the constraints can overlap other constraints,
but don't overlap to many times.
