The ModelSource 640-pin Adapter Chapter 4: Developing the Shell Software
4
Developing the Shell Software
The Shell Software file requirements for a 640-pin Logic model are similar to those for
standard Logic Models, and are summarized here. For more information, see the Shell
Software Reference Manual.
User-Generated Files
As for all Generic Device Adapters, you must create one or more Shell Software files
that contain DUT-specific information, such as pinouts, device names, propagation
delays, timing checks.
Files Provided by Synopsys
● The Adapter Mapping (.ADP) file, GEN640.ADP: This file provides signal
mapping between the Adapter and the ModelSource modeling system. You should
be able to use this file without modification.
● A template Package Mapping (.PKG) file, GEN640.PKG: The .PKG file provides
signal mapping between the Daughterboard and the DUT; the template file contains
Daughterboard pin names mapped to duplicate pin names, for those pins used for
DUT signals. You create the custom .PKG file by editing the template and replacing
the duplicate pin names with your DUT pin names.
