Route view

The Route view displays a representation of the routes for assigned macros. This feature shows the general location of routing segments used by the design.

To display the route view:

  1. Complete Layout. To display routes, Layout must be completed before running ChipEditor.

  2. From the Nets menu, choose Display, and then choose Input, Output, or Both to tell ChipEditor which routes to display.

  3. From the Nets menu, choose Display Algorithm, and then choose Routes tell ChipEditor that you want to display routes.

  4. Select the macro in the ChipView window or Assigned list box, or select multiple macros by holding down the CTRL key as you select the macros you want to see. The routes for the selected macros appear in the ChipView window.

 

Note:  If a macro is moved or unassigned, you must use the Ratsnestview to display the nets connected to it.
