Hi there,
I have a design that sometimes has twice the compilation time as it usually does (even with just minor changes). It happens when the first or even the second routing attemp fails. Is there a report to show why the routing fails so that maybe I can polish my design so it is easier to route? Or is that any general design guidelines that will make the design more routing-friendly? The interconnect usage of the design is only 26% of the avaliable device resources. Thanks, HuaLink Copied

Start the "CHIP PLANNER" Under "View" select "Layer Settings" Select "Routing Utilization" Change the threshold value in order to locate the highest routing congestion. Kind regards GPK

Hi GPK,
Thank you for your reply. The maximum routing utilization is about 70%. Do you think this could be the problem? I couldn't find anything in the design that can cause this to happen and begin to wonder if this is a bug in QII 8.1/9.1. Does anyone have the similiar experience? Thanks, Hua- Mark as New
