Chapter 4: <strong>Xilinx</strong> <strong>Constraints</strong><br />

COMPGRP “group_name” PROHIBIT = [SOFT] “site_group”...”site_group”;<br />

MACRO “name” PROHIBIT = [SOFT] “site_group”...”site_group”;<br />

For a range of locations:<br />

COMP “comp_name” PROHIBIT = [SOFT] “site_group”... “site_group”;<br />

COMPGRP “group_name” PROHIBIT = [SOFT] “site_group”... “site_group”;<br />

MACRO “name” PROHIBIT = [SOFT] “site_group”...”site_group”;<br />

where<br />

• site_group is one of the following:<br />

– SITE “site_name”<br />

– SITEGRP “site_group_name”<br />

• site_name is a component site (that is, a CLB or IOB location).<br />

PlanAhead Syntax<br />

For more information about using the PlanAhead software to create constraints, see<br />

Floorplanning the Design in the PlanAhead User <strong>Guide</strong> (UG632). See PlanAhead in this<br />

<strong>Guide</strong> for information about:<br />

• Defining placement constraints<br />

• Assigning placement constraints<br />

• Defining I/O pin configurations<br />

• Floorplanning and placement constraints<br />

Pinout and Area <strong>Constraints</strong> Editor (PACE) Syntax<br />

Pinout and Area <strong>Constraints</strong> Editor (PACE) can be used to set PROHIBIT. For more<br />

information, see the Prohibit Mode command section in the PACE Help.<br />

Note PACE is supported for CPLD devices only.<br />

FPGA Editor Syntax<br />

FPGA Editor supports PROHIBIT. The constraint is written to the Physical <strong>Constraints</strong><br />

File (PCF) by the Editor. For more information, see the Prohibit Constraint topic in<br />

the FPGA Editor Help.<br />
