The master designer can manually place components by schematic page, part number, or wild-carding. When filtering is enabled, the placement list (which can consist of thousands of entries) becomes more manageable by displaying just the list of filtered components. The partition designer has access...
The properties panel simplifies DRC browsing by allowing users to filter errors and display them in the search panel. The DRC tab in the search panel shows all DRCs in the design, with the option to filter down to specific types, such as spacing DRC errors. Filtered errors displayed in the...
Until now, the Reference Designator (Ref Des) for multi-section instances or split instances would change when parts were processed sequentially. Now, all sections are processed as a single transaction and this enables Ref Des preservation after Part Manager updates. Deleted bus bits are au...
Use the formattag:tag1 tag:tag2. For example, tag:28nm tag:supply. The variables and corners with the specified tags are filtered. You can also use variable and corner names to further filter variables and corners. To do this, use the formatvariablename cornername tag:...
you can then determine whether spurious harmonics should be filtered in order to meet your measurement requirements. You can also determine the strength of any spurious harmonics that propagate into downstream components (e.g., RF amplifiers) by looking at the bandwidth and noise...
Return Path Via(Padstacks): Select the padstack to be used as a return path via. The menu will contain a list of previously selected padstacks and the browse button will allow you to select a padstack from the design or library. T...
The filter and filtered PLF's have overlapping domains (i.e., domain(F1)∩domain(F2)≢null). In the embodiments described below, filtering discards the portion of the filtered PLF F1 that is larger than the corresponding portion of the filter PLF (i.e., discards every portion of F1 ...
FIG. 33 presents an example of filtering a first filtered PLF by a second filter PLF, where both PLF's are defined across a line.FIG. 34 illustrates the minimum PLF for the two PLF's of FIG. 33.FIG. 35 illustrates a Q* path search process of some embodiments of the invention....
(EDA) system through a number of different data abstractions. As used herein, a data abstraction is a mechanism by which a data set is reduced or filtered so that the designer works with an appropriate subset of the data at any one time. For example, certain design tasks require only a ...
First, the intensity differences are filtered (step 1220) in that |F(I)n,j−F(I)n−2,j| is set to zero if the difference is less than predetermined a threshold; this makes the results robust to noise and other small, fluctuations. Although the step of filtering is useful it is ...
