Problem to generate the design with Synplify

--- Quote Start ---

Hello,

I encounter some issues in order to generate my Leon3 design.

I'm using Synplify v9.6.2 for the synthesis and Quartus II v8.1 for the place

and route.

I obtain 708 errors during the place and route phase. The following is an

extract of the errors list :

...

I precise I can generate without errors the same design using Quartus II 8.1 for the synthesis and place & route phase. Moreover I confirm I have selected the same FPGA target (EP3C40) in Synplify and Quartus. Therefore I think there is a problem of compatibility between Synplify and Quartus.

As my flow design process recommends to use Synplify, I would like to know if you have a solution to resolve this problem.

Hi,

first think I'm wondering is that you are using an EDIF netlist. The default for Atera devices at least in SynplifyPro is a vqm netlist. Unfortunately I have no access to Synplify.

Are you really sure that you choose the correct device ? The only way to force SynplifyPro to generate an EDIF netlist for Altera is to choose e.g MAX device .

Can you post your SynplifyPro .prj File ?

Kind regards
