Another tool from Mentor, ICX, will allow you to do exactly what you want: cut the nets or stubs, and then re-simulate without re-translation.

The latest Hyperlynx exports vias as lumped capacitive loads whereas the Boardsim via representation appears to be more realistic as compared to our correlations on real hardware. Exporting and tweaking in Linesim was good enough for us to then recommend changes to layout and then re-import the design into Boardsim for final verification, but there are noticable differences between the Boardsim waveform and the same net exported to Linesim. It isn't perfect, but that is the best I was able to do with Hyperlynx. I would be anxious to hear about any other suggestions. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Nitin Sood [mailto:Nitin.Sood@xxxxxxx]=3D20 > Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 1:13 PM > To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [SI-LIST] SI Simulation post layout >=3D20 >=3D20 > Hello, >=3D20 > Is there a tool that would allow me to simulate post layout=3D20 = design >with greater flexibility to analyze nets, edit nets=3D20 and see its=20 >effect on the integrity of the signal? =3D20 > Hyper-lynx doesn't allow me to cut nets or stubs and see its=3D20 > effect on =3D3D the signal.
