2.4.4.5.1. Default Multicycle Analysis

By default, the Timing Analyzer performs a single-cycle analysis to determine the setup and hold checks. Also, by default, the Timing Analyzer sets the end multicycle setup assignment value to one and the end multicycle hold assignment value to zero.

The source and the destination timing waveform for the source register and destination register, respectively where HC1 and HC2 are hold checks 1 and 2 and SC is the setup check.

Figure 102. Default Timing DiagramThe timing waveforms show the source and destination registers of a data transfer. HC1 and HC2 are the hold checks that Timing Analyzer performs. SC is the setup check that Timing Analyzer performs.
Figure 103. Setup Check Calculation

The most restrictive default single-cycle setup relationship, with an implied end multicycle setup assignment of one, is 10 ns.

The most restrictive default single-cycle hold relationship, with an implied end multicycle hold assignment of zero, is 0ns.
