Pin-Out File (.pin)

An ASCII text file (with the extension .pin) that contains pin assignments and other pin information for the device you specified for a design in the current Compiler settings. The PIN File, which the Fitter generates, has the same name as the Compiler settings and contains the Compiler settings name; the device you specified for the design in the Compiler settings; the pin assignments for the device; and the I/O standard, voltage setting, and pin type of the pins.

NOTE

  1. When you change the design files for a set of Compiler settings, the Fitter may change the pin assignments for the device. To retain the current pin assignments for future compilations, back-annotate the assignments.

  2. If you turned on Base the Pin-Out File (.pin) and Floorplan Package Views on the Largest Selected SameFrame™ Device in the Migration Devices dialog box, which is available from the Device page of the Settings dialog box (Assignments menu), the PIN File contains information for the largest SameFrame device in the Selected migration devices list in the Migration Devices dialog box, rather than for the device you specified in the current Compiler settings.
