Problems solved by technology

[0004] In order to solve the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a waveform storage method based on priority grouping. Aiming at the problem that the waveform files generated by the current integrated circuit simulation are too large, which leads to too long time to read data, in the circuit During the simulation process, by setting priority and grouping the signals, and then outputting the data to multiple data files in order, and recording the corresponding index information at the same time, the reading and access speed of the waveform data is accelerated, and the accuracy of the simulation results is improved. Verification efficiency

Abstract

The invention relates to a waveform storage method based on priority grouping, which comprises the following steps of setting a priority and grouping according to names and importance of all signals needing to be output in a circuit, generating a priority file and adding the priority file into a netlist file; reading and analyzing a priority file in the netlist file, establishing an index file, and writing a field value into the index file; establishing a data file, and sequentially writing the signal data into corresponding files according to a data storage format; updating index files. According to the waveform storage method based on the priority grouping, the time for reading waveform data is shortened, the verification efficiency of a simulation result is greatly improved, the designperiod of an electronic circuit is shortened, and the method adapts to rapid increase of the circuit scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuit automation product design, in particular to a waveform storage method in a circuit simulation process. Background technique [0002] Circuit simulation is an important means of functional verification of integrated circuits. With the rapid increase of the scale of integrated circuits, the waveform files generated by circuit simulation verification are also getting larger and larger. In the timing analysis and simulation process of analog circuits, when the number of nodes reaches more than 100,000, the generated waveform data can reach several gigabytes to tens of gigabytes, and the amount of data is extremely huge. In actual circuit design, it may be necessary to perform multiple simulations on the circuit to optimize the circuit, and the waveform data to be stored is even larger. After the circuit simulation is completed, it is generally necessary to check whether the properties of ...
