Arguments

∙Internal

A literal that specifies for the tool to use the internal set of patterns when performing a simulation run. This is the default mode upon invocation of the tool.

In ATPG system mode, this option directs the Run command to perform the basic ATPG process. In Fault simulation or Good circuit simulation system mode, this option directs the Run command to perform simulation for the internal set of patterns that Run generated during the previous ATPG system mode.

∙Random (FastScan Only)

A literal that specifies for the tool to use the random patterns, capture clock, and observation point that you previously specified when performing a simulation run.
