ansCdlGetMultiplicity

ansCdlGetMultiplicity( 
S_inst 
S_master 
S_parent 
)
=> n_multiplicityFactor

Description

Controls how multiplicity (converting an instance into multiple instances connected in parallel) is handled for an instance in the design when the ansCdlHnlPrintInst function is specified as a netlist procedure in the CDF for the master of the instance.

You can specify that an instance should be treated as n instances connected in parallel by specifying n as the value of the m or M property on the instance. For example, you can specify that an instance be treated as five instances connected in parallel by specifying 5 as the value of the m or M property on the instance. By default the ansCdlHnlPrintInst netlist procedure does not give special treatment to the m or M property on an instance.

If you want the ansCdlHnlPrintInst netlist procedure to support multiplicity on instances using the m or M property, do one of the following:

• Define the ansCdlGetMultiplicity procedure in your .simrc file.
• Define ansCdlGetMultiplicity_<LIBNAME> in libInit.il file of the device library when the libSpecificDevicePrint flag is set in device instParameters.

Arguments

S_inst	Database ID of the current instance being printed in the netlist.
S_master	Database ID of the switch master of the current instance being printed in the netlist.
S_parent	Database ID of the cell for the current instance being printed in the netlist.

Value Returned

n_multiplicityFactor

Multiplicity factor.

Examples

procedure( ansCdlGetMultiplicity( inst master parent )
