CPLD: XC9500/XL: How to set FAST slew rate for 9K outputs in PLUSASM and ABEL?


Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description

Procedure to set slew rate for the xc9500 outputs in PLUSASM and ABEL.


Solution 1:

In ABEL use:

  XILINX PROPERTY 'FAST|SLOW [optional signal list]'; - for EDIF flow

                 OR

  XEPLD PROPERTY 'FAST ON|OFF [optional signal list]'; - for PLUSASM flow


Notes:

1. If no signal list follows "FAST ON" , *all* outputs are set to FAST
slew rate.

2. Only one FAST statement is allowed in the design.

3. Default slew rate in M1 is FAST and SLOW in XACT 6.x






Solution 2:

You can set the slew rate in Plusasm using:

      FAST ON [optional signal list] - for FAST slew rate

                 OR

           FAST OFF [optional signal list] - for SLOW slew rate


Notes:

1. If no signal list follows "FAST ON"	in the PLD file, *all* outputs
are set to FAST slew rate.

2. Only one FAST statement is allowed in the design.

3. Default slew rate in M1 is FAST and SLOW in XACT 6.x
