Chapter 1: Describing a 640-pin Logic Model The ModelSource 640-pin Adapter
Software Requirements
To support the 640-pin Logic Model, you need the following software:
● User-created Shell Software files, described in the Shell Software Reference
Manual.
● The product-specific Shell Software files GEN640.ADP and GEN640.PKG,
provided by Synopsys and described in later text.
● R3.3b or later of the Runtime Modeler Software.
● The lm utility, R3.3b or later, for labeling the Daughterboard.
Procedural Summary
The steps in building a 640-pin Logic Model are as follows:
1. Build the Daughterboard and attach the DUT to it.
2. Connect the Daughterboard to the Adapter.
3. Develop the model Shell Software.
4. Mount the Adapter onto the ModelSource modeling systems.
5. Label the Daughterboard.
6. Verify the model.
Steps 1, 2 and 4 are described in detail in this application note. Steps 3, 5, and 6 are
summarized here; for more details, refer to the Logic Model Development Manual.
