If FMAX Requirements Are Not Achieved...
Identify the critical timing path in the design or the nodes/signals involved in the path
¡°Clique¡± these nodes together using a clique assignment
During recompilation, MAX+plus II will place the logic as close as possible together in the device
- If possible, the logic is assigned to the same LAB
- If logic will not fit into 1 LAB, the logic is placed in adjacent LABs on the same Row
Make LAB or Row assignments using Assign -Pin/Location/Chip
