The Quartus II EDA Netlist Writer (quartus_eda) uses the generated files to generate the final SDC file that
can be used by the HCDC. This option is not required if "HardCopy II" is selected as the device family. In
that case, the default quartus_sta script automatically calls "write_sdc -hc" To manually generate the
PrimeTime SDC file, the recommended flow is:
quartus_sta rev --tq2hc [--sdc <mysdcfile.sdc]
quartus_cdb rev --generate_hardcopy_files
Note that TimeQuest only SDC extensions like get_registers and get_keepers do not get converted.
--tq2pt
Generate temporary files to convert the TimeQuest timing analyzer SDC file(s) to a PrimeTime SDC file.
BY default, when uising this option quartus_sta converts the SDC files specified by the SDC_FILE QSF
variable. Use "--sdc <file>" to manually specify the SDC to convert. This option is equivalent to executing
the following Tcl commands:
project_open
create_timieng_netlist
read_sdc
update_timing_netlist
write_sdc -primetime
The Quartus II EDA Netlist Writer (quartus_eda) uses the generated files to generate the final SDC file for
use by PrimeTime. This option is not required if "PrimeTime" has already been selected as the EDA timing
analyzer tool in the QSF file for the project revsion. In that case, the default quartus_sta script
automatically calls "write_sdc -primetime" To manually generate the PrimeTime SDC file, the
recommended flow is:
quartus_sta rev --tq2pt [--sdc <mysdcfile.sdc]
quartus_eda rev --timing_analysis --tool=primetime
Note that TimeQuest-only SDC extensions like get_registers and get_keepers do not get converted.
--voltage=<value_in_mV>
Option to specify the device voltage (mV) to use when running the TimeQuest timing analyzer.
Examples:
quartus_map top --family=Stratix
quartus_fit top --part=EP1S10F780C7
# Run Timing Analysis for every speed grade
quartus_sta top --model slow --temperature 0 -voltage 1200
