.. _file_format_pcf_file:
Pin Constraints File (.pcf)
---------------------------
.. note:: This file is in a different usage than the Pin Constraints File in XML format (see details in :ref:`file_format_pin_constraints_file`)
The PCF file is the file which **users** should craft to assign their I/O constraints
An example of the file is shown as follows.
.. code-block:: xml
set_io a pad_fpga_io[0]
set_io b[0] pad_fpga_io[4]
set_io c[1] pad_fpga_io[6]
.. option:: set_io <net> <pin>
Assign a net (defined as an input or output in users' HDL design) to a specific pin of an FPGA device (typically a packaged chip).
.. note:: The net should be single-bit and match the port declaration of the top-module in users' HDL design
.. note:: FPGA devices have different pin names, depending their naming rules. Please contact your vendor about details.
