Solution

- Xilinx supports PrimeTime for Post PAR Static Timing Analysis (STA) when targeting Virtex-E, Virtex-II, Virtex- II Pro, and Spartan-3 devices.
- PrimeTime is NOT golden STA for Xilinx. PrimeTime result must be checked against TRACE.
-- There are no plans to further enhance the flow and support additional devices (e.g., Virtex-4 and beyond).
- Xilinx continues to enhance its golden STA tool (TRACE) to analyze designs thoroughly and improve result reporting as complexity increases.
