TMC-20208: RAM Blocks with Unregistered Outputs that are the Source of Paths Failing Setup Analysis

Description

Violations of this rule identify RAM blocks with unregistered outputs that are source nodes of paths that fail setup analysis. Registering RAM outputs can significantly improve RAM's μtco.

Parameters

Name Description Type Default Value Min Value Max Value
maximum_setup_slack Reports a violation for timing paths that have a setup slack below the value of this parameter. double 0.0    

Recommendation

Review the Fitter report 'RAM Summary'. Next, register RAM output to improve μtco by adding 1 additional pipeline to the design's RAM output path.
