How to Short Two Nets or Two Nodes on the Board in Cadence System Analysis Sigrity PowerSI tool?

SimTech

Many times, we need to short two nets on the PCB in Sigrity tool which are open in the real PCB. These nets could be Signal nets or the Power/Ground nets. There is an easy way to short these nodes/nets.

Go to Edit > Trace > Add.

Then, select the first node, say VDD and the second node, say GND, right-click and select Done.

The VDD and GND nodes/nets are shorted now.
