Assigns an attribute that determines the logic created or used to implement the function, for example, the width of a bus. Parameters are characteristics that determine the size, behavior, or silicon implementation of a function. Parameter values are inherited from project defaults or higher hierarchical levels unless you make explicit assignments to individual nodes. Parameters are also overridden by explicit logic synthesis and fitting options.
