maikmerten | I have a question regarding the "est tns" output of nextpnr. For my design, the output startes highly negative, then creeps towards zero | 13:47 |
---|---|---|
maikmerten | Info: at iteration #1: temp = 10000.000000, cost = 112265, est tns = -2366.69ns | 13:47 |
maikmerten | ... | 13:47 |
maikmerten | Info: at iteration #365: temp = 0.000001, cost = 9392, est tns = -0.96ns | 13:48 |
maikmerten | so is that the timing slack, with negative numbers meaning the timing target is not yet reached? | 13:48 |
daveshah | maikmerten: this is a very rough estimate of timing used by the placer | 13:49 |
daveshah | it's primarly there fore placer debugging than as a real indicator as to whether the design will pass timing after routing | 13:49 |
maikmerten | ah, thanks | 13:50 |
daveshah | it is the sum of all the estimated (budget - actual slack | 13:50 |
daveshah | *actual delay) | 13:50 |
daveshah | when that value is negative | 13:50 |
maikmerten | I noticed that with low values of --slack_redist_iter it appears to creep faster towards zero | 13:50 |
daveshah | That is also because slack_redist_iter will redistribute the budget | 13:52 |
daveshah | So it will allow a higher amount of delay in the slower parts of the paths | 13:52 |
maikmerten | so that's not simply a "try harder" button that trades of computational effort and quality | 13:53 |
maikmerten | so, in the end the routing ending up with | 14:21 |
maikmerten | Info: at iteration #385: temp = 0.000000, cost = 11258, est tns = -114.20ns | 14:21 |
maikmerten | Info: at iteration #386: temp = 0.000000, cost = 11258.000000 | 14:21 |
maikmerten | is not troublesome, because that's basically a preliminary estimate | 14:22 |
maikmerten | with | 14:22 |
maikmerten | Info: Max frequency for clock 'uart_inst.CLK_I_$glb_clk': 29.83 MHz (PASS at 28.00 MHz) | 14:22 |
maikmerten | being the real deal | 14:22 |
daveshah | Yes, that is correct | 14:23 |
maikmerten | cool, thanks again for taking the time to answer my somewhat basic questions! | 14:25 |
