Conclusion to Part 4 - Constraints Optimization
In Part 4 of the OrCAD X Constraint Management Guide, we explored optimization techniques to enhance the efficiency of
constraint management. By leveraging features such as ECSets, schematic-to-PCB constraints, and the modular approach,
designers can streamline their workflow and ensure consistent application of constraints across various projects. These
productivity tools are essential for maximizing design efficiency and achieving superior results.
As we transition into Part 5, the Project Example, we will apply the concepts and techniques covered in the previous sections
to a real-world project. This part will provide a practical demonstration of constraint management in action, using the
Cadence Demo FPGA project as a case study to highlight the implementation and impact of constraints in a complex design
environment.
