These constraints control how components are positioned relative to each other, making sure key pairs are close by.

Constraint
Details
Automatic?

Position oscillators close to their drivers to minimize phase noise and startup issues.

Automatically detected

Ensure tight ground return loops for input and output paths to reduce EMI and voltage ripple.

Automatically detected

Ensure a stable, low-impedance signal path for power pins.
