Create a schematic drawing in Mentor Graphics Design Architect. Simulate the design with Mentor Graphics Quicksim II to verify its functionality. Generate an EDIF netlist from the schematic with Mentor Graphics EDIF Netlist Writer. Read the EDIF output file with Mentor Graphics EDIF Netlist Reader, create a simulation viewpoint, and resimulate to verify the design. Refer to the Design Architect and Quicksim references for details on schematic drawing and simulation.
Forces use of special fast carry logic.
After the design has been realized with a specific PLD, it should be resimulated to reverify functionality and to examine timing characteristics. Before compilation, the viewpoint represents only the functionality. Select the component counter by clicking on it in the navigator window. Close the shell window that was opened by this command. This will invoke Quicksim II on the selected viewpoint.
