retiming with Synplify Pro

Aug 05, 2003 1 Replies

I am having problems gtting the retiming feature in Synplify to work. I am coding in a style that utilizes the behavioural retiming(BRT) of synopsys. I code a mac as simple ((a*b) + c) + bulk delay. Synopsys then retimes the code by pipelining the mac.



When I try to test this code in an fpga, Synplify does not retime the registers properly. Has anyone else tried this?



thanks John


Yes, I tried it when Synplify first introduced retiming. It had some effect, but no, it didn't work as I wanted it to, so I didn't buy Synplify Pro.

However, I am still a happy user of Synplify Amateur.
