Write Loops Command Dictionary

Write Loops

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
