Hi Aloke,
Here is how you can do it.
- Go to Constraint dialog box, Delay tab
- Select Driver, it's name appears as pin1
- Select Receiver, it's name appears as pin2.
- Change Rule Tpe from 'Delay' to 'Length'
- Enter min and max constraint values.
- Add the constraint rule.
Note that it does not matter how many TLines/Traces
are there between pin1 and pin2.
- Similarly go to Match-Delay tab and add constraint.
Make the scope Global so that it applies to all
bits of bus.
Now you can drive it back into Allegro/SPECCTRAQuest.
Note that you can also add these constraints in
Allegro/SPECCTRAQuest as well.
