10 years agoTimeQuest, issues with negative edge registers and inverted clocks
When using negative edge registers or inverted clocks TimeQuest is incorrectly analyzing the timing.
module TEST(input clock_50, input in, output reg out);
reg tmp;
always @(posedge clock_50) tmp = in;
always @(negedge clock_50) out = tmp;
endmodule from node: tmp, to node: out~reg0 setup: slack: 0.350, relationship: 0.500 hold: slack: 19.232, relationship: -19.500 With a 50Mhz clock the relationship should be 10.000, I don't understand why its giving the wrong value. The "-invert" option of create_generated_clock also gives the wrong value, however using "-phase 180" results in the expected relationship of 10.000, (half the clock period). Maybe this is a bug but I have failed to find any mention of this issue.
