The Post CRC Source (POST_CRC_SOURCE) constraint specifies the source of the CRC value when the configuration logic CRC error detection feature is used for notification of any possible change to the configuration memory. This feature is only supported in 7 series FPGAs. For more information refer to the 7 Series FPGAs Configuration User Guide (UG470).
This property is only applicable when POST_CRC is set to ENABLE. Enabling the POST_CRC property controls the generation of a pre-computed CRC value in the bitstream. As the configuration data frames are loaded, the device calculates a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) value from the configuration data packets.
The POST_CRC_SOURCE property defines the expected CRC value as either coming from a pre-computed value, or as being taken from the configuration data in the first readback pass.
