Constraint RGMII Interface of Triple Speed Ethernet with the External PHY Delay Feature   The objective of this design example is to showcase the way to constraint the TSE_RGMII. This design example is only applicable when the delay feature (90 degree shift) of TX_CLK and RX_CLK of external PHY are turned on. It can run on 3 different speeds which are 10 MHz, 100 MHz, and 1000 MHz. Assumption is made that the user is familiar with the Triple Speed Ethernet intellectual property (IP) Core, ALTDDIO, ALTPLL, TimeQuest and Static Timing Analysis, and double data rate (DDR) source synchronous concept.     How to Constraint Select the method of interface constraint: system centric method or FPGA centric method. Different method requires different formula to calculate the delay value in the set_input_delay and set_output_delay command This design example use system centric method Decide whether to turn on or turn off the delay feature (±90 degree shift) of external PHY as it will determine the type of alignment between the clock and data. 90 degree shift - center aligned No shift - edge aligned This design example is applicable to delay feature of TX and RX of external PHY are turned on (90 degree shift) only Determine the desired launch and latch relationship. There are 4 types of launch and latch relationship.They are Rise-Rise (RR), Rise-Fall (RF), Fall-Rise (FR) and Fall-Fall (FF) relationship RGMII specification state that the LSB of data will be sending out at the rising edge first and MSB of data is sent out followed by the falling edge The design of TSE with RGMII interface will capture the data at the rising edge first then followed by falling edge. It implies that the clock needs to be shifted +90 degree instead of -90 degree Desired setup launch and latch relationship (Arrow in red): RR and FF Desired hold launch and latch relationhip (Arrow in blue): FR and RF Figure 2. Lauch Clock and Latch Clock Relationship Constraint the RGMII Interface.The Synopsys Design Constraints (SDC) is based on the design and application.However, there are some main SDC needed for RGMII interface.
