  30. Appendix B Analyzing the Implemented Results

  31. Analyzing the Implemented Design • Useful to review various report files to debug warning and error messages • Design has removed due to load-less nets • Design does not fit into device • Design does not meet timing • Etc. • System Generator must inform ISE software how fast design needs to run • System Generator generates an XCF (XST constraints file) that contains timing information

  32. Warnings and Errors See xflow_results in target directory System Generator .NGC netlist file Contains timing constraints generated from SysGen Top-level wrapper constraints Merged netlist containing wrapper file And SysGen design

  33. Design Size What if design is too big for the target device? Analyze FPGA resource utilization Refer to the map report <design> .mrp generated in the xflow directory Additional information

  34. Design Timing What if my design does not meet timing? Analyze global clock signals Refer to the place & route report <design> .par generated in the xflow directory Analyze global timing results

  35. Timing Analysis How can I view detailed timing information? Start  Programs  Xilinx ISE  Accessories  Timing Analyzer Timing Constraint Detailed path information from Source to destination

  36. Constraints Where are the design Constraints? • System Generator generates a pre-synthesis constraints file (XCF) with timing constraints • Period Constraint ( specified by user according to DCM clock output frequency in wrapper) • Multicycle Path Constraints if design has multiple rates • Full deployment BSP includes UCF • Period Constraint for system clock (100 MHz on XUP board) • Pin location constraints • Constraints from both files are merged into PCF (physical constraints file) during implementation Detailed information on timing constraints can be found in the online software manuals www.xilinx.com/support

  37. User Constraints File The BSP contains pin locations and timing constraints for the XUP board System Clock location on XUP board Clock period constraint Pin locations of AC97 CODEC interface signals

  38. XST Constraints File The XCF file contains timing constraints as specified in the System Generator Design FPGA clock period specified in System Generator Token (corresponds to DCM output clock frequency in wrapper file)
