Re: [casper] basic question about yellow blocks

Hi Dave, Rick, There are constraints in Verilog for this (IOB=TRUE and LOC), but I suspect that the tools may have trouble passing the port connectivity upstream. Since the Simulink design gets used as a sub-component of a larger project, all of the connectivity to external and inter-module

Correct, it doesn't work. You can attach the constraints in Verilog (eg, (* LOC = B11 *)), and it compiles in the Xilinx IDE, but the casper tools tell me that all the ports need to be connected to GPIO blocks, or something. My next attempt is to simply use the gpio yellow block as a bunch of

Bummer. I used this on the ATA F board design, but it was not done using the CASPER toolflow. Maybe a small modification to the CASPER toolflow to change this to a warning rather than an error would make it workable for you. Dave On May 11, 2010, at 7:31 , Rick Raffanti wrote: Correct,
