netlist tricks

Hi,

to everyone who thought about doing calculations with netlists . eg.
external pins, internal states are known (from reset state) to figure out
the remaining signals, lets say 100% visibility.

Does anybody thought about that?

kind regards,
thomas

Hi Matt,

I mean:
You have a board with a few fpga´s running your partinioned design. You
record all IO´s into RAM on the fastes clock (how much depends on your RAM
size). After a trigger you stop and download the RAM. With this information
you step into the netlists, to explore the internal signals. I think every
boolean equation could be calculated, so every signal is visible - 100%.

clear?
kind regards,
thomas

It sounds like you want to somehow feed the contents of this
RAM back into a simulation to reproduce all of the design internals?

Yep,

the idea is to record this and use the netlists in the simulation. Is there
a way to use edif netlists in modelsim, with usable signal names?

What is the preferred way (performance):
record first and then watch

or record and watch on the fly?
