Sigrity-Tip of the week: Record and Save Tcl commands in Sigrity tools

Tcl has become the de facto standard embedded command language for Electronic Design Automation (EDA) applications. Whether you need to automate some repetitive behavior, extend the functionality of an application, control multiple tools with a single script, or create a custom GUI, Tcl is your best choice.

To use the Tcl commands in Cadence Sigrity tools, launch the TCL Command editor and choose View > Pane > Tcl Command from the main menu.

As shown below, load a board file in the Power SI Model extraction workflow and observe the Tcl commands that are being recorded in TCL Reader window.

can we open PowerSI from TCL or Python and run the recorded commands? Do you have any examples?

Hello Raj

Yes Ofcourse you can open the PowerSI in command line and run the recorded scripts, here is the sample

[path]/powersi.exe -b -tcl <tcl_script_file.tcl> <layout_file.spd>

Cheers,
