SET PROCEDURE FILE Timing Command Dictionary
SET PROCEDURE FILE
Scope: Sets timing information
Usage
SET PROCEDURE FILE {“scan_group_name”“filename”}...
Description
Specifies which test procedure files to use during pattern save.
ATPG requires the test procedure file to contain the proper sequence of events,
but does not require it to specify the real timing information. However, simulators
and ATE do require this information. Thus, you must edit your test procedure files
to include real timing information after you run the ATPG process. You then use
the SET PROCEDURE FILE command to specify the proper test procedure file.
This command lets you specify multiple scan groups and their associated test
procedure files. If you use this command without specifying the scan group name
and test procedure file name, the tool uses the original test procedure file to update
the time values for all scan groups.
Arguments
•“scan_group_name”
A quoted string that specifies the name of the scan group to which the test
procedure file applies. You must surround this argument in double-quotes.
•“filename”
A quoted string that specifies the name of the test procedure file for the
specified scan group. You must surround this argument in double-quotes.
Note
When you modify the test procedure file, you can only add real
timing values; you cannot delete, reorder, or change any
statements—and that includes adding break or break_repeat
statements.
