New ContributorHard Lock of Logic Cells - Cyclone V
Hello all,
How can I hard-lock specific logic cells and set the interconnection manually?
For example, two LCELL cells which I want to be as close as possible to one another without changing their location between compilations?
Thanks,
Tom

Tom_BGU1.Assignment editor --> to --> Choose a sample cell (like a delay-element) --> Assignment name --> Location --> Value: LABCELL --> Insert Coordinates --> Compile
2. Open Chip planner --> Make sure this cell is well placed
3. Project --> Generate .tcl file 'XXX_tcl_v1' (save at output_files)
4. Open generated file
5. Update the rest of the cells accordingly
6. delete unecessary line from the addign_editor
7.tools --> tcl scripts --> run
