Hi, Katty, The first error report in the timing file shows this:

In fact, all of the timing erros were related to different bits of this same path. The twiddle_general_4mult block uses the Xilinx convert block which is known to have sub-optimal timing. The twiddle_general_4mult block should probably be updated to use the CASPER convert block. That will likely result in better timing, but could have other undesirable side effects (e.g. using too many DSP48s). Until this block is updated, you'll have to somehow ease the timing in some other way. Either use PlanAhead to manually "pre-place" the design or add some pipelining registers to ease timing of other tight areas (generate a verbose timing remote using ISE or the "trce" command from the command line to find other tight areas).
