8.11 Understanding Datasheet Reports

The Datasheet Report displays the external characteristics of the design. You can generate this report from SmartTime Max/Min Delay Analysis View.

The Datasheet Report contains three tables:

Table 8-6. Datasheet Report Tables
TableDescription
Pin DescriptionProvides the port name in the netlist, location on the package, type of port, and I/O technology assigned to it. Types can be input, output, or clock. Clock ports are ports shown as "clock" in the Clock domain browser.
DC Electrical CharacteristicsProvides the parameters of the different I/O technologies used in the design. The number of parameters displayed depends on the family for which you have created the design.
AC Electrical CharacteristicsProvides the timing properties of the ports of the design. For each clock, this section includes the maximum frequency. For each input, it includes the external setup, external hold, external recovery, and external removal for every clock where it applies. For each output, it includes the clock-to-out propagation time. This section also displays the input-to-output propagation time for combinational paths.
