Description
Quartus® II
In a Block Diagram File (.bdf), you may connect a signal to a pin with a different name. For example, signal 'A' may be connected to pin 'B' in the schematic. Any pin named 'A' will also be connected to signal 'A', even if the they are not physically connected in the schematic.
MAX PLUS® II
In a Graphic Design File (.gdf), you may not directly connect a signal to a pin with a different name. You will need to use the WIRE primitive to change the name of the signal to match the name of the pin. If this is attempted without the WIRE primitive, the MAX PLUS II Compiler will issue the following error message:
Error: Node for pin "" must have the same name as the pin
