SDC Timing Constraints of Arria V GZ Native PHY
This section describes SDC examples and approaches to identify false timing paths.
The Quartus II software reports timing violations for asynchronous inputs to the Standard PCS and 10G
PCS. Because many violations are for asynchronous paths, they do not represent actual timing failures.
You may choose one of the following three approaches to identify these false timing paths to the Quartus
II or TimeQuest software.
In all of these examples, you must substitute you actual signal names for the signal names shown.
Example 14-1: Using the set_false_path Constraint to Identify Asynchronous Inputs
You can cut these paths in your Synopsys Design Constraints (.sdc) file by using the
set_false_path command as shown in following example.
set_false_path -through {*10gtxbursten*} -to [get_registers
*10g_tx_pcs*SYNC_DATA_REG*]
set_false_path -through {*10gtxdiagstatus*} -to [get_registers
*10g_tx_pcs*SYNC_DATA_REG*]
set_false_path -through {*10gtxwordslip*} -to [get_registers
