Hi,

Thanks for the design. I am able to reproduce the issue. Till now I could figure out that the issue is mainly due to the location which you are trying to use. If I disable the pin constraints and let the tool allocate it, is goes through the compilation. With this first thing that I would like to check with you is whether the input clock pin constraints are hard requirement for you or there is a flexibility to move to some other pins.

Let me know please.
