I am using Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA of device xc7a35ticpg236-1L. I made 7 stage ring oscillator using LUT-6 to observe the frequency of the various locations in the layout. The problem what I have found that the RO showing more higher frequency in the top row and bottom row of the layout than other row position. I have checked various position by row-wise. It is usual that all location has little difference to other adjacent position due to having some technological process variation. But the difference between the top row of the layout and the adjacent row is around 10MHz. However, the usual difference is around 0.5-2 MHz. Thanks in advance for any comments and reasons.
