At this point you can either continue to Lab #2: Setting Physical Constraints, or exit the Vivado Design Suite and continue later. Lab #2 uses the project created during this lab, so be sure not to delete your work.

In this lab, you learned:

  • How to Create a constraint set and set a target constraint file
  • How to add timing constraints to a design using the Timing Constraints Wizard
  • How to add timing exceptions using the Timing Constraints Editor
  • The importance of saving constraints to disk versus in-memory constraints
  • How to generate the clock interaction report and properly interpret the resulting matrix
  • How to generate the timing summary report and properly interpret the results
