stop netlisting when design has instances of a particular library name

Hi,

     Given that I have standard cells and analog blocks in my design, while netlisting the design, I want to black box all standard cells and netlist analog blocks only.

I have a seperate netlist for all the standard cells, that I plan to include using ".include"

 

How do I tweak my si.env to achieve the same.?

    There's no switch or stop list on a per-library basis. However, you can easily set this in the hierarchy editor:

    1. Create a config view for your design for the netlister in question (e.g. spectre)
    2. In the Table View you can see the Cell Bindings. Sort on the library column (click in the header) - although I think it's sorted by library name by default.
    3. Click on the first row for the library in question, and then shift-click on the last row for that library.
    4. Right Mouse->Set Multiple Views-> pick the view to use. Or Right Mouse->Add Stop Point

    Save the config, and then use the config as the design to netlist in (say) ADE etc.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
