RLOC question

hello,

i am using RLOC statement as ..

//synthesis attribute rloc of d1 is X12Y11

As far as i understand, these X-Y co-ordinates specify the Slice number.

My first question is - how do i specify which of the two flip-flops(in one slice) to use?

.. i was going thru the documentation, where i noticed RLOC_RANGE option, has anybody used this option.

i tried it as -

//synthesis attribute RLOC_RANGE of d1 is X0Y0:X2Y2

the MAP failed and reported,

ERROR:Map:10 - RLOC_RANGE attribute on FD symbol "d1" (output signal=t) must be on the start of a set.

What am i doing wrong?

thanks, varun

Use a "BEL" attribute for that ... attribute "BEL" = "FFX" or "FFY" There are BEL attributes for the LUTs and carries ("F","G" and "XORF", XORG") too. Download and read the "Constraints Guide" for more info.

Hello Brian,

definitely, using "BEL" will solve the first half of the problem.

but what should i do to specify the range in which a particular element some particular element (flip flop) is required ot be placed.

thanks, varun.
