Files that contain timing information for performing a board-level timing analysis (with the extensions .data, .mod, and .lib) that are generated by the Quartus II software. Stamp model files can be imported into the Mentor Graphics Tau software.
You can specify that the Quartus II software generates these files by selecting STAMP in the Board-Level Timing Analysis section of the Board-Level page of the EDA Tool Settings dialog box.
The Quartus II software places the files it generates into the \<project_directory>\timing\stamp directory by default after compilation. The file names are the top-level design entity name with a "_board" appended to the project name and a .data or .mod extension (that is, <design name>_board.data or <design name>_board.mod). These files can then be imported into the Tau software for board-level timing analysis.
