13 years ago1) Doesn't your Parallel-in, Shift-Out design have more ports than those?
2) You should set a max output delay and a min output delay on SO. The max value will include the MCUs tSetup, while the min value will include the MCUs tHold. They should also include an estimate of wire delay and an estimate of clock to data skew. max output delay = tSetup + maxWireDelay + worseClockSkew min output delay = -Hold + minWireDelay - worseClockSkew And isn't your MCU capturing SO using the 2 MHz SCK? If so, you should constrain SCK and constraint SO in relation to SCK. 3) They look reasonable. But again max input delay = tCO + maxWireDelay + worseClockSkew min input delay = tCO_min + minWireDelay - worseClockSkew
