30、ng constraints to the design, you must create an initial database. The initial database is generated from the post-map results of the design. Use the GUI or command-line procedures in Table 2 3 to complete this step.Run Analysis & Synthesis to generate a post-map database.1You can also create a post

31、-fit netlist for the initial database. However, creating a post-map is less time consuming, and is sufficient for this tutorial example.Table22.

35、Refer toTable2 4 for the GUI and command-line procedures to complete this step.Step 5: Create a Post-Map Timing NetlistBefore specifying any timing requirements, you must create a timing netlist; you can create a timing netlist from a post-map or post-fit database. The timing netlist is derived from

36、 the post-map database you created in Step 3: Perform Initial Compilation. To create a timing netlist based on the post-map netlist, use the GUI or command-line procedures in Table 2 5.1When you launch the TimeQuest analyzer directly from the Quartus II software, the current project is automatically

37、 opened.1You cannot use the Create Timing Netlist command in the Tasks pane to create a post-map timing netlist. By default, the Create Timing Netlist requires a post-fit database.Table 24.

40、ecify Timing RequirementsYou must define two clocks in the fir_filter design. Refer to Table2 6 for a list of properties for each clock.To create the clocks in the fir_filter design, and assign the proper clock ports, use the GUI or command-line procedures in Table2 7.1By default, the create_clock c

41、ommand assumes a 50/50 duty cycle.Once you have completed the procedure shown in Table2 7, the clock definition is complete.Step 7: Update the Timing NetlistAfter you create timing constraints or exceptions, you must update the timing netlist to apply all timing requirements to the timing netlist.Ta

45、e the Synopsys Design Constraints (SDC) FileBefore you generate a timing report, you should create an SDC file.Once you specify the clock constraints for the design and update the timing netlist, you should create an SDC file. All of your timing constraints and exceptions are saved to the SDC file.1

46、If you inadvertently overwrite any of your constraints later in the design flow, you can use this initial SDC file to restore all of your constraints.The initial SDC file can act as the “ golden ” SDC file that contains the original constraints and exceptions for the design. Use the GUI or command-l

47、ine procedures in Table2 9 to create an SDC file.The filtref.sdc file now contains the constraints and false path exceptions for the two clocks that you defined in Step 6: Specify Timing Requirements .The Write SDC File command can overwrite any SDC files. When this occurs, the new SDC file does not

48、 maintain order or comments. Therefore, it is recommended that you save a golden SDC file separately that you can manually edit with a text editor. This allows you to enter comments and organize the file to your own specifications. Table 28. Updating the Timing NetlistThe TimeQuest Timing Analyzer G
