Problem Title:
2.1i Ngdanno: Constants become hanging nets in back-annotated HDL file causing unknown
states in timing simulation
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
HDL design modules which have constants as inputs may output unknown values during
timing simulation. In the back-annotated simulation file, these inputs are hanging, hence the
simulation results unknown states. This is a result of ngdanno becoming confused when a
slice both generates and consumes a pwr/gnd signal.
Solution 1:
Workaround is to preclude the .ngm file from being read by ngdanno. This can be accomplished
by deselecting 'Correlate Simulation Data to Input Design' under Simulation Options in Design
Manager.
