What should I do to see this block as register?

[SYosh17]

Hi,

I want to know timing of specific path between registers to implement asynchronous circuit.

Following block is seen as register, so that it is exist in matches list in Name Finder in Timing Analyzer. So, I can know the timing information between this register and another register.

lut_input lut_in1 (a, wa); lut_input lut_in2 (b, wb); lut_input lut_in3 (y, wy); lut_input lut_in4 (l, wl);   lut_output lut_o ((~wl & wy) | (wl & (wa | wb)), y);

However, following block is not seen as register. What should I do to see this block as register?

lut_input lut_in1 (l, wl); lut_input lut_in2 (q, wq); lut_input lut_in3 (s, ws); lut_input lut_in4 (r, wr); lut_input lut_in5 (mr, wmr);   lut_output lut_o ((~wl & wq) | (wl & ((~ws & wr & wmr) | (wq & ws) | (wq & ws & wr & wmr))), q);

I’m using Cyclone V GT.

Hi,

May I request the design.qar for investigation?

Thanks.

Thank you for replying.

I create simple sample project. Please refer to this design.

Hi,

I have filed a case to the engineering team.

Thanks.

Hi,

Could you please let me know the progress of this case?

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,

Below is the feedback:

You either need to change the design not to have loops/latches, or else define a clock in the SDC. Right now, it sounds like Quartus is creating a dummy clock of some period to feed the latches.

Thanks.

Thank you for letting me know the feedback.

I have tried both ways: removing loop/latches (designA.qar) and defining a clock (designB.qar), but they did not work and I still can’t get the timing information between the specified latches (S1R2FFLN modules).

I wonder if I have done it in the right way.

I attached the .qar files of both trials to this post.

Could you please check my procedure and let me know if your find any problem?

Hi,

The Timing analyzer in the second design is analyzing the timing between S1R2FFLN modules.

Thanks.
