  • Patent number: 7742909
    Abstract: Systems and media for reconstructing data from simulation models are disclosed. Embodiments may include a media containing instructions for accessing an alias from an alias file. The media may include instructions for searching for a net name and, if the net name is not found, searching an alias index file for an alias index entry associated with the net name, the alias index entry having a net name and an associated position. The instructions may also include, if the net name entry is found, instructions for accessing from an alias file an alias associated with the net name. A further embodiment may include instructions for receiving a net name and a position of an alias in the alias file, creating an alias index entry for the alias having a net name and the position of the alias, and storing the created alias index entry in the alias index file.

  • Patent number: 7334060
    Abstract: A JTAG-compliant device is configured to receive data through the control (TMS) line in addition to being configured to receive data through the input (TDI) line. A burst-write instruction is made the active instruction, extending the capability of the test access protocol (TAP) controller such that the TAP controller can receive data into a data register while the TAP controller is in certain states. In some states, the TAP controller receives and stores a bit only from the input line. In other states, the TAP controller receives and stores a bit from the input line, and in addition, the TAP controller receives and stores a bit from the control line. The TAP controller may store the received bits by shifting the received bits into the least significant bit of a data register.
