Hi folks,
I'm having a problem where I back-annotated the nodes of a LogicLock'ed SDRAM controller. The design was compiled with Auto Packed Registers = MINIMIZE on Quartus 3.0 SP1. When I recompile the design, it fails, sometimes with as little as 2 nodes not being able to fit. This problem does not occur if I compile Reg Packing = NORMAL, so I assume register packing is causing problems.
I need to pack the registers to stay within the resource constraints of the project and I need to LogicLock to maintain timing. Is there a way to LogicLock a register-packed design and not have problems in subsequent compiles?
