Embodiment
For making purpose of the present invention, feature and function thereof are had further understanding, conjunction with figs. is described as follows:
Fig. 1 carries out the method flow diagram of the control method of error correcting routine for circuit layout of the present invention (layout).The main process step of present embodiment is as follows as shown in the figure:
At first, provide and have the user's operation-interface (step 200) that opens beginning option and several error correction options; But open circuit diagram in the beginning option open circuit html Layout Files HTML continuing repairing volume work, and the error correction option is according to four main design phases in the general circuit layout and corresponding setting.
These four design phases are respectively location layout (placement) stage, circuit layout (routing) stage, measuring point layout (test point) stage and distribution (release) stage, and the option of institute's relative set is for locating error correction (placement check) option, circuit error correction (routing check) option, measuring point error correction (test point check) option and issuing error correction (release check) option.
Wherein, error correction option in location is in order to confirm whether assembly is put to circuit diagram fully; Whether circuit error correction option all has and has drawn suitable cabling (trace) in order to confirm to put each assembly in the circuit diagram; Measuring point error correction option then is to be used for confirming whether measuring point is set.This measuring point is the gauge point of production unit in order to basic signal and function in the affirmation circuit board.
In addition, distribution error correction option is the situation in order to confirm whether cabling has short circuit or open circuit then, and whether egative film (artwork) shelves complete.The egative film file is to generate by circuit diagram conversion to be used for transferring to other unit and to carry out the required archives of system work afterwards that continue.
Then, open circuit layout archives (step 210) by opening the beginning option with program; Writing down the executing state (as, executed or do not carry out) of each error correction option in the program.Circuit diagram and egative film file except program, have more been comprised in these circuit layout archives ... Deng.But and circuit layout files title be provided with need comprise a version of display information (as, study version, formal version or distribution version) representative number.Wherein, the difference that studies version and formal version is: formal version is set up measuring point in circuit diagram, and the difference of formal in addition version and distribution version edition has increased the egative film shelves for issuing.
Then, according to program unenforced each error correction option is shown on user's operation-interface (step 220).Then, confirm caution content that unenforced each error correction option had and its pairing detection content whether identical (step 230) in regular turn; Each is warned content and is used for confirming whether each pairing design phase of error correction option finish, and respectively detecting content then is to select according to each pairing design phase of error correction option.
For example, the location error correction pairing design phase of option is the location arrangement stage, and confirm that method that the location arrangement stage finishes is zero for the value of confirming not put in the circuit diagram in the circuit layout archives assembly, therefore warn content and will be set at zero, and the value of not putting assembly will be considered as detecting content.Therefore when the caution content is same as the detection content, represent that promptly each assembly all put to circuit diagram (value of not putting assembly equals zero).
The pairing design phase of circuit error correction option is the circuit arrangement stage, and confirms that the method that the circuit arrangement stage is finished is zero for confirming that cabling (trace) value of (drawing) is finished in not setting.Therefore warn content and will be set at zero, and uncompleted cabling value will be considered as detecting content.And when the caution content is same as the detection content, represent that promptly the cabling of each assembly is set all.
The pairing design phase of measuring point error correction option is the measuring point arrangement stage, and confirms that method that the measuring point arrangement stage finishes number is an official release for the representative of represent version in the file name of confirming the circuit layout archives.Therefore warn the representative number that content will be set at official release, and the representative of file name number will be as detecting content.And be same as when detecting content when the caution content, promptly measuring point has been set and has been finished in the representative circuit schematic.
The distribution error correction pairing design phase of option is a distribution phase, and confirms that the method that distribution phase is finished has had the egative film shelves for confirming in the circuit layout archives.Therefore warn extension name or shelves name that content will be set at the egative film shelves, and the extension name of file name mediella shelves or a shelves star are considered as detecting content.Therefore when the caution content is same as the detection content, had egative film shelves (the egative film shelves complete) in the indication circuit html Layout Files HTML.
Then, when comparison result when being identical, then impel default error correcting routine to begin to carry out, and the executing state of error correction option is switched to executed (step 240); When the comparison result of each error correction option is identical, represent its institute to finish corresponding each design phase, can impel the circuit layout application program to begin to carry out corresponding error correcting routine this moment, to confirm the mistake in the design.
Then, according to the switching of executing state, the content (step 250) of change program; After each error correction option was finished respectively, it was shown in executing state on user's operation-interface with change, with the up-to-date error correction state of alert circuit layout personnel, and the program of each error correction option executing state of record in the circuit layout archives was upgraded relatively.
At last, confirm whether to have unenforced error correction option (step 260); When on confirming user's operation-interface, not having unenforced error correction option, then represent all design phases all to finish and then finish all programs.In addition when confirming still to have unenforced error correction option, then re-execute step 230 to allow the execution that continues of unenforced error correction option.
In addition, when the comparison result of step 230 when being inequality, the execution in step 260 that then can continue is to confirm whether to have unenforced error correction option.
Please consult the use synoptic diagram of Fig. 2 again for user's operation-interface.Show in user's operation-interface 10 as shown in the figure have open beginning option one 1 and several error correction options (as, location error correction option one 2, circuit error correction option one 3, measuring point error correction option one 4 and distribution error correction option one 5), wherein each error correction option can be by with thickness font, font bottom line or in modes such as change color, as the executing state of prompting mode with each error correction option of cue circuit layout personnel.
For instance, open beginning option one 1 and location error correction option one 2 and show, represent that these two options carried out (finishing) with thin font; And circuit error correction option one 3 shows with boldface type and represents that promptly this option carrying out; Measuring point error correction option one 4 and distribution error correction option one 5 show with boldface type demonstration and hypographous mode in addition, then represent these two options not carry out (not finishing as yet) as yet.The executing state of each error correction option represents that mode does not limit in the application of reality, as long as be able to allow the various states of circuit layout personnel identification.
By control method of the present invention, not only can allow the circuit layout personnel when the design of circuit layout, the whole error correcting routine of certain execution more can and then increase the stability of product with the quality of holding circuit topological design.
