MLAB_ADD_TIMING_CONSTRAINTS_FOR_MIXED_PORT_FEED_THROUGH_MODE_S
ETTING_DONT_CARE
Allows you to specify whether you want the TimeQuest Timing Analyzer to evaluate timing constraints
between the write and the read operation of the MLAB memory block. Performing a write and read
operation simultaneously at the same address might result in metastability because no timing constraints
between those operations exist by default. Turning on this option introduces timing constraints between
the write and read operation on the MLAB memory block and thereby avoids metastability issues;
however, turning on this option degrades the performance of the MLAB memory blocks. If your design
does not perform write and read operations simulataneously at the same address you do not need to set
this option.
