Exceptions

For the ProASIC3/E, ProASICPLUS, ProASIC, Axcelerator, eX, and SX-A families, the timing analysis tool translates this command to an equivalent SDC command set_multicycle_path.

Examples

The following example adds a clock exception from the pin reg_q_a_10_/U0:CLK with respect to the clock clk.

timer_add_clock_exception clock {clk} -pin {reg_q_a_10_/U0:CLK} -dir {from}
The following example adds a clock exception to the pin reg_q_a_10_/U0:E with respect to the clock clk.
timer_add_clock_exception clock {clk} -pin {reg_q_a_10_/U0:E} -dir {to}
