I am beginner with Astro. I finished cts step but skew higher than 13ns. I can't find what is problem:sad: Please advice what I check .
And does anybody explain about meaning of (NONSTOP SINK) in the skew report?

======== Clock Global Skew Report ======================================

Clock: ipclk
Pin: M_CLOCKGEN/U14/O
Net: ipclk

Phase Type = rise && fall
Operating Condition = worst
The clock global skew = 13.491
The longest path delay = 15.801
The shortest path delay = 2.310

The longest path delay end pin: M_CORE_TOP/M_TG_TOP/M_VRAMPCAL/vcal_count_reg_1_/CK
The shortest path delay end pin: M_CORE_TOP/M_REGBANK/ff_323_reg_3_/CK

normally CTS engine stops at sink pin. A non-stop sink pin is a sink pin that CTS will trace through during clcok tree synthesis. In your case, the non-stop pin seems to be a generated clock pin.

most likely your bad skew is also due to the generated clock.
