Automatic Testpoint Generation

archive
archive over 16 years ago

Hi,

 I am using the Testprep Automatic for the first time and I am having problems.  When I start it, it says performing auto insertion initialization and stays there for a very long time. I let it run for about 2 hours.   I thought it was locked-up but it will let me stop it.

 Is this normal or is it a setup/parameters problem?    

 Thanks for any help!

Barry

     There is a route keepin defined.  I am using V16-2-57AB

    I had several nets "fixed" while running testprep.  When I "unfixed" these, testprep finishes the pass.  The coverage is low (probably still need to do some tweeking), but it finishes.

    Thanks for your help!
