The Setup area of the Design Timing Summary section shows all results related to max delay analysis, including setup, recovery, and data checks.
It includes the following values:
- Worst Negative Slack (WNS)
- The worst slack across all timing paths analyzed for max delay. This value can be positive or negative.
- Total Negative Slack (TNS)
- The total of all WNS violations, based on the worst violation per endpoint.
- Number of Failing Endpoint
- The number of endpoints with WNS violations (slack less than 0 ns).
- Total Number of Endpoints
- The total number of endpoints checked during max delay analysis.
