2.2 Place and Route

The demo project includes the IO PDC file and the floor planner PDC constraint files. The Place and Route process uses these PDC files to place the I/Os and CCC macros.

To place and route the design, perform the following steps:

1. On the Design Flow window, double click Place and Route. When place and route is successful, a green tick mark appears next to Place and Route, as shown in Figure 2-1.
2. To view the place and route report and the log files in the Reports tab, right click Place and Route and select View Report. It is recommended to view the top_place_and_route_constraint_coverage.xml file for place and route constraint coverage.
