FPGA Compiler II, FPGA Express: FST scripting tool: Compiler directives for using pullups/pulldowns


Record #6298

Product Family: Software

Product Line: Synopsys

Product Part: FPGA Compiler II

Product Version: 1999.05

Problem Title:
FPGA Compiler II, FPGA Express: FST scripting tool: Compiler directives for using pullups/pulldowns



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
The FPGA Scripting Tool (FST) implements a Tcl-based command-line interface for the FPGA Compiler II product, including FPGA Express. Can one use a compiler
script command to specify the use of pullup resistors?


Solution 1:

Assuming the top-level name of the chip as specified by the compiler
directive:

set chip mychip

Then syntax is demonstrated below:

set_pad_resistance "PULLUP" "mychip/port_name"

Note that PULLUP must be all capitals, and the use of double quotes.
For more information and sample scripts, please see the FST scripting
guide help.
