21.15.15.1 Arguments

delay_value

Specifies the amount of time before a clock edge for which the signal is required. This represents a combinational path delay to a register outside the current design plus the library setup time (for maximum output delay) or hold time (for minimum output delay).

-clock clock_ref

Specifies the clock reference to which the specified output delay is related. This is a mandatory argument. If you do not specify -max or -min options, the tool assumes the maximum and minimum input delays to be equal.

-max

Specifies that delay_value refers to the longest path from the specified output. If you do not specify -max or -min options, the tool assumes the maximum and minimum output delays to be equal.

-min

Specifies that delay_value refers to the shortest path from the specified output. If you do not specify -max or -min options, the tool assumes the maximum and minimum output delays to be equal.

-clock_fall

Specifies that the delay is relative to the falling edge of the clock reference. The default is the rising edge.

output_list

Provides a list of output ports in the current design to which delay_value is assigned. If you need to specify more than one object, enclose the objects in braces ({}).
