Design Should Not Contain Delay Chains (Design Assistant Rule)



A design should not contain any delay chains, which are two or more consecutive nodes with a single fan-in and a single fan-out that are used to cause delay. Delay chains often result from asynchronous design practices and can cause various design problems, including an increase in a design's sensitivity to operating conditions, a decrease in a design's reliability, and difficulties when migrating a Quartus® II device to a HardCopy device.
