9.2 Port View

The Port View displays the I/O attributes in a spreadsheet-like format. Each row corresponds to an I/O port in the design, sorted by the port name. The column headings specify the names of the I/O attributes in your design. The first few column headings are standard and common for all families. The remaining columns display family-specific attributes. Only attributes applicable to a specific device appear in the I/O Editor attributes table. For some I/O attributes, you will choose from a drop-down menu; for others, you might enter a value and for others, the field is read-only and not editable.

Displayed columns can be sorted alphabetically, numerically, or filtered.

In the I/O Editor, the ports can be viewed in a spreadsheet-like format or in the Design Tree View window of the Port tab. A port selected in the Port tab is also selected in the Port View spreadsheet and vice versa. The following figure shows the DM[0] selected in the spreadsheet and the Design Tree port view.

The Port View also displays the memory width and data rate of the DDR instance in the design (if it exists in the design) in the top left row under the Port Name column, as shown in the following figure.
