Tools Supported: FastScan and FlexTest
Scope: Atpg, Fault, and Good modes
Usage
WRIte LOops filename [-Replace]
Description
Writes a list of all the current loops to a file.
The Write Loops command writes all feedback loops in the circuit to a file. For
each loop, the file contents show whether the loop was broken by duplication. The
file shows loops unbroken by duplication as being broken by a constant value,
which means the loop is either a coupling loop or has a single multiple-fanout
gate. The report also includes the pin pathname and gate type of each gate in each
loop.
Arguments
•filename
A required string that specifies the name of the file to which you want to write
the loops.
•-Replace
An optional switch that replaces the contents of the file if the filename already
exists.
Examples
The following example writes a list of all the loops in the circuit to a file:
set system mode atpg
write loops loop.info -replace
