Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

Hi,

I am using encounter for a design synthesizd by Build Gates. I see that if I feed the following constraint using read_dc_script in Build Gates, it works fine:

create_clock [get_ports {CLK300_RX}]  -name CLK300_RX -period 2.5 -waveform {0 1.25}

create_generated_clock -name CLK75_RX -source [get_ports {CLK300_RX}] -divide_by 4 [get_pins {STR_RX_blk/cnt4_reg_1/Q}]

This when read in Encounter creates a generated clock with the warning "Master clock source not found". And the period assigned to this clock is {0 0} when I do report clock waveform. The generated clock constraint got recognized in BG but is not getting recognized in Encounter.

I need four generated clocks in my design. How should I go about this. Any help on this would be extremely helpful.

Thanks,
Arun

Well, posting a question about Build Gates in the SKILL forum is not likely to get you an answer...

BTW, you should be migrating questions across to the forums on www.cadence.com communities, as cdnusers.org will be retired shortly.

Regards,

Andrew.
