Board rules (see Board Rules) allow to automate tasks such as default port connections or default pin values. For example:
Connectint all unconnected clk ports to the internal CLK signal.
Turn all unused LEDs off.
When a board is selected, all I/O blocks are updated and the values are reset.
Hint
The configuration sources of board are stored in constraints.
In order to support a new board, create a new directory with the info.json, pinout.* and pinout.*
(optional) files.
pinout.json MUST be generated from the pinout.* using the generator.py script.
