How to run ADEXL without re-netlisting?

dboy1394

Hi, I am using ICFB 6.1.5-64b.

Due to design-specific reasons, I want to include a blackboxed block into my testbench by hacking the netlist. It works fine in ADE because I can "include" the netlist in ADE.

Now I want to run this in ADEXL for PVT simulation. How can I run ADE without re-netlisting? Say I run it first, got the netlist, then I hack it and want to re-run with the hacked netlist.

In the ADEXL GUI I only find "run", no "run without netlisting".

 

Thanks

JP

    Hi Andrew,

    I had followed ur instructions, but i see that netlist is different each time. I have lot of corners to run and want to use hacked netlist from previous run. when i go and open the netlist for each corner  i see that its not the reference netlist, its generated again. So the solution does not work for me.

    Thanks,

    Amit
