set_input_delay (::quartus::sdc)

Belongs to ::quartus::sdc 1.5

Specifies the data arrival times at the specified input ports relative
the clock specified by the -clock option. The clock must refer to a
clock name in the design.

Input delays can be specified relative to the rising edge (default) or
falling edge (-clock_fall) of the clock.

If the input delay is specified relative to a simple generated clock
(a generated clock with a single target), the clock arrival times to
the generated clock are added to the data arrival time.

Input delays can be specified relative to a port (-reference_pin) in
the clock network. Clock arrival times to the reference port are added
to data arrival times. Non-port reference pins are not supported.

Input delays can already include clock source latency. By default the
clock source latency of the related clock is added to the input delay
value, but when the -source_latency_included option is specified, the
clock source latency is not added because it was factored into the
input delay value.

The maximum input delay (-max) is used for clock setup checks or
recovery checks and the minimum input delay (-min) is used for clock
hold checks or removal checks. If only -min or -max (or neither) is
specified for a given port, the same value is used for both.

Separate rising (-rise) and falling (-fall) arrival times at the port
can be specified. If only one of -rise and -fall are specified for a
given port, the same value is used for both.

By default, set_input_delay removes any other input delays to the port
except for those with the same -clock, -clock_fall, and -reference_pin
combination. Multiple input delays relative to different clocks, clock
edges, or reference pins can be specified using the -add_delay option.

The value of the targets is either a collection or a Tcl list of
wildcards used to create a collection of the appropriate type.  The
values used must follow standard Tcl or TimeQuest-extension
substitution rules. See help for the use_timequest_style_escaping
command for details.
