So, what if you can figure out all that can go wrong when your product is being assembled early on? Not guess but know and correct at an early stage – not wait for the fabricator or manufacturer to send you a long report of what needs to change.

hello there, i'm a student studying allegro PCB designer.

There are some commands that i can do with GUI, but i want to know what kind of commands i used so that i can route with commands only(ex) skill).

Is there any file that i can see what kind of commands i used something like log files or command history?

thank you for reading this long boring question.

Hello,
I'm exploring VManager tool capabilities.

I launched a simulation with xrun, which terminates with a fatal error (`uvm_fatal actually).

Then I imported the flow session, through VManager -> Regression -> Collect Runs, linking the directory with ucm and ucd of just failed run.

VManager imports the test with following attributes:

Total Runs =1

#Passed =1

#Failed =0

What I'm missing here? It should be imported as failed test.

If I right click on flow name and choose Analyze All Runs, VManager brings me to Analysis tab and I can see only a PASSED tag in Runs subwindow.

Thank you for any help

Hi,

I found a basic Specman E/Verilog program at http://www.asic-world.com/examples/specman/memory.html and I would like to run it through a vsif file, with vManager.

I'm able to run it, without problems, with this command : xrun -Q -unbuffered '-timescale' '1ns/1ns' '-access' '+rw' memory_tb.v mem_tb_top.e test_write_read_all.e.

I wrote a first vsif which look like this:

---- vm_basic.vsif -----

session vm_basic {
        top_dir : /home/cadence/xrunTest/;
        output_mode: terminal;
};

group basic {
        test test {
                run_script: xrun -Q -unbuffered '-timescale' '1ns/1ns' '-access' '+rw' memory_tb.v mem_tb_top.e test_write_read_all.e
        };
};

----------------------------

This solution didn't work due to the prompt change with xrun, and I have no clue how to manage this issue.

Have you any idea?

Best regards,

Yohan

I am importing sessions which are run by other people to analyse and I would like to remove them from my vManager Regressions tab as they become obsolete. As I am not the original person who run the sims, I cannot "delete" sessions. What are my options? Thanks.

Specman *search* command allows searching in all loaded modules, but only for a string.

Is there a way to search for a regexp or glob?

Alternatively, is there a way to simply get a list of all loaded files somehow? Then I could use either the "shell" command, or real shell together with grep.

Thanks

  A few weeks ago, we talked about template text labels for design-specific information. There, we were focused on labels that are specific to the design as a whole: revision information, dates, authors, etc. Today, we’re looking at a diff...(read more)

Is anyone else using Constraint Manager within Capture? This is my first time using it. I'm finding that it is occasionally changing some of my constraint values in Allegro. It seems random. 

Hello All,

starting with version 8.1 the contents of the ce_tools directory will no longer
be shipped with Specman. The directory contains some unsupported AE/R&D
ware and has not been updated for several releases (i.e. most of those old
packages don't work with the latest release).
 
Attached is the contents of this directory. Please read the README before
using any of the packages.

I've heard lots of people asking for a way to generate Makefiles for Specman code, and it seems there are some who don't use "irun" which takes care of this automatically. So I wrote this little utility to build a basic Makefile based on the compiled and loaded e code.

It's really easy to use: at any time load the snmakedeps.e into Specman, and use "write makefile <name> [-ignore_test]".
This will dump a Makefile with a set of variables corresponding to the loaded packages, and targets to build any compiled modules.
Using -ignore_test will avoid having the test file in the Makefile, in case you switch tests often (who doesn't?).

It also writes a stub target so you can do "make stub_ncvlog" or "make stub vhdl" etc.

The targets are pretty basic, I thought it was more useful to #include this into the main Makefile and define your own more complex targets / dependencies as required.

The package uses the "reflection" facility of the e language, which is now documented since Specman 8.1, so you can extend this utility if you want (please share any enhancements you make).

 Enjoy! :-)

Steve.

Hi everybody,

The attached package is a tiny code example with a demo for an upcoming Team Specman blog post about writing macros.

Hilmar

Attached is the latest revision of the venerable Specman-Matlab package (Lead Application Engineer Jangook Lee is the latest to have refreshed it for a customer in Asia to support 64 bit mode.  Look for a guest blog post from him on this package shortly.)

There is a README file inside the package that gives a detailed overview, shows how to run a demo and/or validate it’s installed correctly, and explains the general test flow.  The test file included in the package called "test_get_cmp_mdim.e" shows all the capabilities of the package, including:

* Using Specman to initialize and tear down the Matlab engine in batch mode

* Issuing Matlab commands from e-code, using the Specman command prompt to load .m files, initializing variables, and other operational tasks.

* Transfering data to and from the Matlab engine to Specman / an e language test bench

* Comparing data of previously retrieved Matlab arrays

* Accessing Matlab arrays from e-code without converting them to e list data structure

* Convert Matlab arrays into e-lists

Happy coding!

Attached is the latest emacs mode for e/Specman - version 1.23

Please follow the install instructions in the top section of the actual file

Hello,

I have a question I want to create a cover that consists a sparse values, pre-computed (a list or define) for example l = {1; 4; 7; 9; 2048; 700} I'd like to cover that data a (uint(bits:16)) had those values, Any suggestion on how to achieve this, I'd prefer to stay away from macros, and avoid to write a lot of code

struct inst {

  data :uint(bits:16);
  opcode :uint(bits:16);
  !valid_data : list of uint(bits:16) = {0; 12; 10; 700; 890; 293;};
  event data_e;
  event opcode_e;

  cover data_e is {
     item data using radix = HEX, ranges = {
     //I dont want to write all of this
     range([0], "My range1");
     range([10], "My range2");
     //... many values in between
    range([700], "My rangen");
    };

    item opcode;

   cross data, opcode;
};

post_generate() is also {
    emit data_e;
};
};

Hello,

I am trying to import (in spectre) an spice model of a ceramic capacitor manufactured by Samsung EM. The link that includes the model is here :-

http://weblib.samsungsem.com/mlcc/mlcc-ec.do?partNumber=CL05A156MR6NWR

They proved static spice model and interactive spice model.

I had no problem while including the static model.

However, the interactive model which models voltage and temperature coefficients seems to not be an ordinary spice model. They provide HSPICE, LTSPICE, and PSPICE model files and I failed to include any of them.

Any suggestions ?

Do you want to create designs that are correct by construction? Read along this blog to understand how you can achieve this by using Width Spacing Patterns (WSPs) in your designs. WSPs, are track lines that provide guidance for quickly creating wires. Defining WSPs that capture the width-dependent spacing rules, and snapping the pathSegs of a wire to them, ensures that the wires meet width-dependent spacing rules.(read more)
