Hello kaz,

Thanks for breaking up the equations in post# 13. I am still understand the slide 16. I guess its easier for me since I am learning Time Quest and haven't used older version.

Thanks,

AA

I am still however puzzled why the slide 15 and 16 ignore the term tSU + tCO. They must come into scene otherwise the whole purpose of timing is defeated. The equations after all are from altera and they make sense. So how is that a substantial and most important term is ignored by the slide presenter. I hope the actual tool is different.

It could be the presenter wanted an easy equation for demo only. I hope somebody can answer that.
