Product Part: Constraints Editor

Product Version: 2.1i

Problem Title:

2.1i: Constraints Editor - TIMESPEC TSxx = FROM(abc) TO(xyz) - WARNING : Unable to create FROM TO with tsxx



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
A following timespec definitation is not understood by
Constraints Editor.
    timespec ts05 = from pads(pclk) to ffs = 6 ns;

Generates warning:
WARNING : Unable to create FROM TO with ts05.


Solution 1:

The warning can be ignored or the user can modify the ucf
file to include the timegrp and then the timespec.

For example:
   timegrp pad_pclk = pads(pclk);
   timespec ts05 = from pad_pclk to ffs = 6ns;

This will be fixed in a future release of the software.
