Eldo Premier<br />

Forcing Elaboration<br />

Tip<br />

Forcing Elaboration<br />

Eldo Premier stores results of the elaboration in the output directory. If the simulation is<br />

restarted, Eldo Premier does not re-elaborate the circuit for parts of the netlist which have not<br />

changed. Use option PREMIER_FORCE_GEN to force Eldo Premier to elaborate the whole<br />

circuit instead of reusing the previous elaboration results.<br />

This option may be necessary if there was an error during the first elaboration (for example disk<br />

full, NFS error, data corrupted).<br />

Eldo Premier Selectable Accuracy Option<br />

You can specify a global macro-option to control accuracy in Eldo Premier simulations.<br />

It has an impact on the following:<br />

• Accuracy tuning<br />

• Device model optimization<br />

• Small R and C simplification<br />

• Reduction activation<br />

The option PREMIER_MODE can be set to five distinct values; OFF and 1 to 4, where 1 is the<br />

most accurate and slowest mode, and 4 is the least accurate and fastest. Syntax:<br />

.OPTION PREMIER_MODE=OFF|1|2|3|4<br />

The global macro-option, PREMIER_MODE, triggers specific combinations of actions<br />

according to Table 3-1, enabling a gradual speed/accuracy trade-off with monotonous behavior.<br />

Each individual action may be activated/deactivated through a specific option.<br />
