get_clocks
Usage
get_clocks [-nocase] [-nowarn]
Options
-nocase: Specifies the matching of node names to be case-insensitive
-nowarn: Do not issue warnings messages about unmatched patterns
: Valid destinations (string patterns are matched using Tcl string matching)
Description
Returns a collection of clocks in the design. When used as an argument to another command, such as the
-from or -to options of set_multicycle_path, each node in the clock represents all nodes driven by the
clocks in the collection.
# The following multicycle constraint applies to all paths ending at registers
# driven by clk
set_multicycle_path -to [get_clocks clk] 2
The filter for the collection is a Tcl list of wildcards, and must follow standard Tcl or TimeQuest-extension
substitution rules. See the help for use_timequest_style_escaping for details.

set period [get_clock_info -period $clk]
puts "$name: $period"
