How to use "set_max_skew" constaint?

As title. I had try set_max_skew command for following design. But it doesn't work.

And there is nothing to be reported by report_max_skew command in TimeQuest.


How to know that following constraints are true or fail?

 

Design:

module A (

input a, b;

output e, f;

 

wire c, d;

    B B1(a,b,c,d);

    B B2(c,d,e,f);

endmodule

 

module b (

input a,b;

output c,d;

    assign c=a;

    assign d=b;

endmodule

 

Constraint:   <-- I set max skew on the different group net a and b.

set_max_skew 1.0 -from [get_ports [list a b]] \

                                   -to     [get_nets [list c d]] \

                                  -include {intput_delay output_delay}

 

 

Thank you very much.

Hi,


Your syntax is wrong. The arrangements should be like below:

set_max_skew [-h | -help] [-long_help] [-exclude <Tcl list>] [-fall_from_clock <names>] [-fall_to_clock <names>] [-from <names>] [-from_clock <names>] [-include <Tcl list>] [-rise_from_clock <names>] [-rise_to_clock <names>] [-through <names>] [-to <names>] [-to_clock <names><skew>


For more information you can enter set_max_skew -long_help or refer here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/quartushelp/13.0/mergedProjects/tafs/tafs/tcl_pkg_sdc_ext_ver_1.0_cmd_set_max_skew.htm


You could also try generate the command through GUI. On Timing Analyzer go to Constraints>Set Max Skew and you can edit the details.

Nurina
