Hello!
Thank you for your response I looked into the .fit.rpt file, here is the snippet of it:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

So, if I understand correctly, no logic resources (ALMs) were used to implement this negation?:
assign Q = ~ A;
Does that mean that I can use the negation of every bit in my project and it won't generate additional logic resources?
