Set Atpg Limits Command Dictionary
cycles that FlexTest can use during an ATPG process. FlexTest counts the
test cycles in both the scan operations as well as in the fault simulation to
determine the number of test cycles it uses. When FlexTest reaches the
maximum, it terminates the ATPG process.
Examples
FastScan Example
The following FastScan example sets two of the three limits on the ATPG process
and then shows the relevant setup data from the Report Environment command:
set atpg limits -cpu_sec -test_coverage 99.5 -pattern_count 100000
report environment
...
atpg limits = 95.5% coverage 100000 patterns
...
If the ATPG process reaches either of these two limits, the process terminates.
Notice that the information from the Report Environment command only shows
the settings that are different from the invocation defaults of Off.
FlexTest Example
The following FlexTest example sets two of the three limits on the ATPG process
and then displays the relevant setting data using the Report Environment
command:
set atpg limits -cpu_sec -test_coverage 99.5 -cycle_count 50000
report environment
...
atpg limits = 95.5% coverage 50000 cycles
...
If the ATPG process reaches either of these two limits, the process terminates.
Notice that the information from the Report Environment command only shows
the settings that are different than the invocation defaults of Off.
