Describes techniques for constraining and analyzing source-synchronous interfaces.

Core Interface Path Timing Analysis

To properly perform timing analysis for the core interface paths, you must define the clock settings in

the .sdc for the following:
• clock to the core registers and

• clock to the I/O registers (Simple register and DDIO mode)
To properly perform timing analysis for the I/O interface, specify the system level constraints of the data

pins against the system clock pin in the .sdc.

Single Data Rate Input Register
Figure 11: Single Data Rate Input Register

This SDC command creates the clock setting for the input clock:

create_clock -name sdr_in_clk -period "100 MHz" sdr_in_clk

This command instructs the TimeQuest timing analyzer to timing analyze the input I/O with 0.15 ns

input delay.

set_input_delay -clock sdr_in_clk 0.15 sdr_in_data
