The Versal architecture IP defines using a pre-engineered
test bench and PHY for interfacing user designs. This IP is structured so that only the
physical layer (PHY) interconnect in the
Xilinx®
device should be updated when pinouts change. Because the PHY implementation depends on
the I/O assignments, it must occur after the I/Os are placed and validated. To enable
I/O Planning after synthesis, the implementation of the PHY now happens as part of
implementation during the opt_design
command.
Note: To generate a default LOC for all
the IOs, use the
xphy::generate_constraints
command on a
synthesized design and run the implementation flow.
