    摘要: A method and computer program product for verifying an incremental change to an integrated circuit design include receiving as input an integrated circuit design database and an engineering change order. Objects in the integrated circuit design database are identified and marked to indicate a current state of the integrated circuit design database. The engineering change order is applied to the integrated circuit design database, and the integrated circuit design database is analyzed to generate a list of incremental changes to the integrated circuit design database resulting from the engineering change order. Objects in the integrated circuit design database included in the list of incremental changes are identified and marked to distinguish objects in the integrated circuit design database that were changed from the current state. The marked integrated circuit design database distinguishing the objects that were changed from the current state is generated as output.

    摘要: A system for designing integrated circuits that use frequency synthesizers to ensure testability. A testability circuit is added or connected to the frequency synthesizer that will receive allow the integrated circuit to operate in a system mode for normal function and in a test mode during testing. In the test mode, the testability circuit will inhibit the reset signal from initializing the integrated circuit until the frequency synthesizer has reached phase lock. The testability circuit may be implemented as a component in the frequency synthesizer cell in an ASIC design system such that anytime the frequency synthesizer is used, the integrated circuit is testable.

    摘要: A method of partitioning an integrated circuit design for physical design verification includes steps of receiving as input a representation of an integrated circuit design having a number of physical design layers and a composite run deck specifying rule checks to be performed on the integrated circuit design. The composite run deck is partitioned into partitioned run decks so that the number of physical design layers referenced by each of the partitioned run decks is a minimum. The representation of the integrated circuit design is parsed to filter only the physical design layers required for each of the partitioned run decks into a filtered data deck for each of the partitioned run decks. The filtered data deck is generated as output for each of the partitioned run decks.
