schematic - layout

[svilen]

Hi,

I have herd that there is a product that when a net in the schematic is
highlighted the corresponding net in the layout highlights too. Does
some one knows what product is this?

Thanks,
Svilen

Allegro does this. Can go in either direction - select a net - or pin or
component - in the board file and the schematic side will display the net - or
pin or component (and if a net, will list all the pages that net appears)
highlighted.

Select a net - or a node or a component - in the schematic view and the board
file will display that element highlighted.

With a triple headed display system it is the "bees knees"...

VLX allows to crossprobe nets. It doesn't do crossselection of nets for
the very simple reason that nets are not selectable in the artwork.

This is called cross-probing. It can be done after an LVS in Assura.
It can also be done with Virtuoso-XL (or whatever Cadence is calling
that product today), but you have to make your layout XL-compliant
(which usually means that you must have started your layout in
Virtuoso XL).

There are two types of solution:
a. Simple cross-probing. Example: using Virtuoso-XL. The
connectivity is based on simple information available on your Opus
library.
b. Complex cross-probing. More accurate if you have complex
connectivity setup. You need LVS database (Assura, Diva, Calibre) to
do this.
