The CONFIG primitive is a table that you can use to specify up to eight attributes that affect the entire design (global attributes such as PART or PROHIBIT).

When using certain CAE software packages, global properties cannot be attached to the “Schematic” or “Sheet.” Instead, they must be attached to the CONFIG symbol. Enter attributes using the same syntax that you would use in a UCF file. The global attributes can be any length, but only 30 characters are displayed in the CONFIG window. The CONFIG table is shown in the following figure.
