Inherited Connections Functions
Inherited connections is an extension to the connectivity model that allows you to create global signals and override their names for selected branches of the design hierarchy. This flexibility allows you to use
- Multiple power supplies in a design
- Substrate connections that can be overridden
- Parameterized power and ground symbols
