16 years agoUsing 'set_clock_groups' without parameter -asynchronous or -exclusive?
Hi,
From the Quartus user manual "Quartus II Handbook Version 9.1 Volume 3: Verification": set_clock_groups[-asynchronous | -exclusive]
-group <clock name>
[-group <clock name>]
[-group <clock name>] ...
a group is defined with the -group option. the timequest timing analyzer cuts the
timing paths between clocks each of the separate -groups groups.
I tried to use following constrain in SDC file: set_clock_groups -group [get_clocks {CLK_A}] -group [get_clocks {CLK_B}] But TimeQuest still reports violation of paths between domain CLK_A and CLK_B. Am I miss-understanding something??? # . PS: NO violation is reported if I use: set_clock_groups -asynchronous -group [get_clocks {CLK_A}] -group [get_clocks {CLK_B}] OR set_clock_groups -exclusive -group [get_clocks {CLK_A}] -group [get_clocks {CLK_B}]
