Andy, Keith,

The env vars didn't do it either.

I use mainly the Solaris version of Allegro.

Just for fun I opened the database in Windows. The 
delay seems to report correctly there. I thought I had
lost my mind. Seems to be reproducible from OS to OS.


Currently, I'm downloading the latest and greatest Solaris with
hotfixes.  I was using the 10/24/2004 version. Cadence has a 
11/18/2004 with 12/21/2004 hot fix.


I'll report back and see if the problem is really software
related.

Arrgh,

Thanks for your help.
Dave

Andy,

That would be cool, except the net is routed
according to the "i" button...


Pin                     Type      SigNoise Model
 ---                     ----      --------------
 RP3008.5                BI        CDSDefaultIO 
 U11.J25                 BI        CDSDefaultIO 

 No connections remaining

 Properties attached to net
   PROPAGATION_DELAY = L:S:2655 MIL:2660 MIL

Any other ideas?

dave

If the net is not fully routed the box will stay yellow. Cm should tell 
you that at the very bottom bar of the UI.
To enable unrouted drc mode go to the Analyze Menu in CM and select 
Analysis Modes.
In the Options tab of the resulting UI select the according checkboxes.

[PCB_FORUM] Prop Delay - Analysis Failed






On 15.2

I have a net with the  PROPAGATION_DELAY set.
The electrial constraints form button is "on".

In the CM spreadsheet, The cell is yellow and reports
that the Analysis failed.


What are the reasons that the Analysis could fail?

Is there something else to setup?

Thanks
dave
