TMC-20001: Timing Paths with Hold Slack Exceeding Threshold
Description
Violations of this rule identify timing paths with hold slack below the slack threshold parameter. Timing paths with a very large negative hold requirement complicate timing closure and may cause excessive run times. Such paths are likely invalid, and require appropriate timing constraints.
Parameters
| Name | Description | Type | Default Value | Min Value | Max Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| slack_threshold | A violation is reported for timing paths that have slack more negative than the value of this parameter. | double | -5.0 | 0.0 |
Recommendation
Ensure that the timing path is valid. Otherwise, apply an appropriate timing exception ( set_false_path or set_multicycle_path ) or restructure the path.
