General Description:
When I run implementation in Project Navigator, a message similar to one of the following occurs:
"ERROR:CPLD:832 - 'net' is assigned to an invalid location ('PX') for this device. This will prevent the design from fitting on the current device. 'net' must be reassigned before attempting a re-fit."
"ERROR:Cpld:6 - Cannot assign Output Pin moda to PX* (FB1_4). This pin does not support the functionality of that signal."
*PX - X is a pin number.
Solution
To solve this problem, check the following:
- Check the device data sheet to see if "PX" is a dedicated pin that cannot be used for I/O (e.g., JTAG pin, VCC, GND, etc.)
- Ensure that you are using the proper notation for location constraints:
a) Example for pinned packages (PC, VQ, TQ, HQ), where "y" is the pin number:
NET DATAIN LOC = Py;
b) Example for ball-grid packages (FG, BG, CS), where "x" is the row letter and "y" is the column number:
NET DATAIN LOC = xy;
- Be sure that you have not placed a PROHIBIT constraint on that same location.

If you are attempting to utilize the JTAG pins as I/O, ensure that you have de-selected "Reserve ISP Pins" in the software. |
