Associating an Instance with an ADE State

If you switch the original binding of an instance with a Virtuoso config or schematic view, you need to associate the instance with an ADE state for providing the information required for the netlisting. However, in case the ADE state provides only model files for netlisting and simulation, you can directly add the model files in CLIPS.

To associate an instance with an ADE state:

1. Right-click the row of the instance for which you have overridden the binding and choose Add/Edit ADE Cellview.
   
   
   When an ADE state is added to an instance in the digital hierarchy, a Virtuoso nickname is added as a prefix to the ADE cellview lib/cell/view in the settings column for the instances with which it is associated.
2. In the View drop-down list, select the name of the ADE state to be associated with the instance and click OK.
3. Click the Update command on the toolbar to update the hierarchy.
