Tcl Package and Version

Belongs to ::quartus::sta

Syntax report_datasheet [-h | -help] [-long_help] [-append] [-expand_bus] [-file <name> ] [-panel_name <name> ] [-stdout]
Arguments -h | -help Short help
-long_help Long help with examples and possible return values
-append If output is sent to a file, this option appends the result to that file. Otherwise, the file will be overwritten. This option is not supported for HTML files.
-expand_bus If set, bus is reported as individual ports
-file <name> Sends the results to an ASCII or HTML file. Depending on the extension
-panel_name <name> Sends the results to the panel and specifies the name of the new panel
-stdout Send output to stdout, via messages. You only need to use this option if you have selected another output format, such as a file, and would also like to receive messages.
Description

This function creates a datasheet report which summarizes the timing characteristics of the design as a whole. It reports setup (tsu), hold (th), clock-to-output (tco), minimum clock-to-output (mintco), output enable (tzx), minimum output enable (mintzx), output disable (txz), minimum output disable (mintxz), propagation delay (tpd), and minimum propagation delay (mintpd) times. These delays are reported for each clock or port for which they are relevant. If there is a case where there are multiple paths for a clock (for example if there are multiplexed clocks), then the maximum delay is reported for the tsu, th, tco, tzx, txz and tpd, and the minimum delay is reported for mintco, mintzx, mintxz and mintpd. The datasheet can be outputed to the Tcl console ("-stdout", default), a file ("-file"), or a report panel ("-panel_name"). Additionally if the "-file" option is used then the "-append" option can be used to specify that new data should be written to the end of the specified file.
