Abstract
Pin placement legality is verified in real-time in a background to reduce a number of input/output assignment analysis runs during a physical design of a programmable logic device. Edited pin properties are checked quickly in the background against certain rules, and results displayed to a user usually before a new pin is edited. Available and legal positions are found and displayed for a selected pin to reduce errors.
