AR# 6433

EXEMPLAR - The synthesis process is removing my instantiated Xilinx component (Optimize).

描述

Keywords: optimize, component, removed, optimized out, instance

Urgency: Standard

General Description:
I have instantiated a specific Xilinx component (i.e., BUFG, BUFGDLL), but after the Optimize command in synthesis is run, my instantiated component disappeares. Did I instantiate incorrectly? Is there an attribute I should use when instantiating Xilinx-specific components?

解决方案

Anytime a Xilinx-specific component is instantiated, that component should never be removed by synthesis. If an instantiated component is being removed or optimized to a different component, this happens because of a bug in the Synthesis tool.

The following attribute can be used to force Optimize not to touch a particular instance:

After performing a "Read", but before using the "Optimize" command, either use the following in the TCL script, or type it in the GUI command window:

set_attribute -instance instance_name -name NOOPT -value TRUE

For example, if a BUFG is being removed in the instance "U1", you would use the following:

set_attribute -instance U1 -name NOOPT -value TRUE

VHDL Syntax:

attribute noopt : boolean;
attribute noopt of <component_name> : <type> is TRUE;

For example, if a BUFG is being removed in the instance "U1", you would use the following:

attribute noopt : boolean;
attribute noopt of U1 : label is TRUE;

Verilog Syntax:

//exemplar attribute <module_name> noopt TRUE

For example, if a BUFG is being removed in the instance "U1", you would use the following:

//exemplar attribute U1 noopt TRUE
