Can't pack to I/O pin

I have two inputs (TMDS_DATA and TMDS2_RX_DATA) When I directly pass to the output the input everything works without any problems. But if I insert scaler between then the register at one input is not implemented in ddio. At the same time, the second entrance fitted correctly

I added the following to QSF:

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_green" set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_red" set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_blue"

But:

Warning (176225): Can't pack node TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_green to I/O pin Warning (176229): Can't pack node TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_green and I/O node TMDS_DATA[1] -- nodes have conflicting location assignments Info (176253): Node "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_green" assigned to CUSTOM_REGION_X0_Y0_X44_Y36 due to Automatic Periphery Placement Info (176253): Node "TMDS_DATA[1]" assigned to PIN AA29 due to User Location Constraints and Automatic Periphery Placement Info (176253): Node "TMDS_DATA[1]" assigned to PIN AA29 due to Automatic Periphery Placement Info (171110): Nodes could not be merged because their location constraints do not overlap Info (171109): Node "TMDS_DATA[1]~input" assigned to IOIBUF_X89_Y32_N4 due to Automatic Periphery Placement

Why? and how can I force the use of ddio register?

Hi,

 

Can you try to remove the user-defined location setting for the TMDS_DATA[1] node?

 

Thanks.

Do you mean pin assignment? Should fitter put input elsewhere?

Hi,

 

Yes. Can you check in Assignment Editor?

 

Thanks.

In Assignments Editor:

  • Set Location(to pins only) for TMDS_DATA
  • Set I/O Standart(LVDS) for TMDS_DATA
  • Set Input termination
  • Set Fast Input register(enable)

Hi,

 

Can you disable the location assignment?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Can you provide the design.qar for investigation?

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

The error cannot be reproduced. I enable the following assignments and the software reported that this node does not exist in the design.

 

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_green"

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_red"

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst0|dd_blue"

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst1|dd_blue"

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst1|dd_green"

set_instance_assignment -name FAST_INPUT_REGISTER ON -to "TMDS_Receiver:TMDSReceiver_inst1|dd_red"

 

Could you help to check?

 

Thanks.
