IO_OBUF Placement and IC delay in timing path

Is there anyways we can constrain the placement of IO_OBUF so that it is closer to the pad.

How can we reduce the IC delay in the timing path?

    Thanks for reply. nand_dq_out is bidirectional.Let me try adding register.

    Hi,

    I tried this solution by registering the output.But timing is still failing.

      I am still not able to meet the timing with the suggested options.When I add additional registers,the interface itself is not working.

      6.105 is not IC delay its cell delay.

    can u share the screenshot?

    1) the resource property editor that show that the register is inside the DDIO location?

    2) Timing analyzer report showing the violation

    3) the latest .sdc files showing how frequency that you use for that pin

    4) what IO standard that you are using
