Hi there, I have some constraining issues. I already read some stuff about it and how to use the TimeQuest Analyzer and all this, but I'm still not getting along. At least I got all my clocks c...

I have a Nios II design similar to the bup design found in CIII 3c120 Ethernet Standard design. For those set_input_delay and set_output_delay constrains applied to ext_flash input and output signals such as fsm[a], fsm[b] and etc, how can I determine the value of its delay? Do I always need to create a virtual clock or I can reference to osc clk as shown set_output_delay -clock [ get_clocks clkin_50 ] 2 [ get_ports {fsm_a [*]} ] set_input_delay -clock [ get_clocks clkin_50 ] 2 [ get_ports {fsm_d [*]} ] Is the delay '2' determined by clkin_50? What if I have an osc clk of 125MHz? Thanks
