Documentation for MMMC flow with CPF

mamsadegh

Hi,

In SOC Encounter Users Guide, Chapter 43, "Performing Multi-Mode Multi-Corner Timing Analysis and Optimization" , describes MMMC flow completely however, I feel this description is supposing that you don't have a CPF file in your design, since most of the parts in the flow will be actually done in the CPF file and we don't need to do them manually. 

Is this correct?

In other words, The ".view" file, which is used for configuring MMMC, should be created automatically from CPF. Right now, as what I see from version 10.11 of encounter, this does not happen and you should create the .view manually. 

Is there any documentation , describing MMMC flow, considering also CPF file created and loaded for the design? or any script examples? 

thanks

  • If you load the CPF then it will get saved to the EDI database. You'll see a *.cpfdb file under the *.enc.dat directory. A viewDefinition.tcl file will also exist. So when you restore the design your MMMC environment will be read in and you do not need to re-load the CPF.Run report_analysis_views after restoring the design to confirm this.
