Detailed Description
In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiment of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, a Netlist Report or a Component Pin Report is derived from a schematic circuit diagram drawn by Cadence or a layout Board file, and the Report is processed by a data processing tool to obtain an inspection Report that can correspond the interconnection signal names between boards one to one.
The invention is described below with reference to an embodiment, and specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the method for inspecting interconnection signals between PCBs based on Excel includes:
and exporting Netlistreport or Component Pin report through a schematic circuit diagram drawn by Cadence or a layout Board file to obtain all signals of the PCB design, wherein the interconnection signals between the boards are contained in the signals. The following implementation process focuses on checking the name of the interconnection signal between boards by using a tool, and in order to clearly illustrate the implementation of the design method, the detailed description is given here of the name of the interconnection signal comparing two phase connection boards based on an excel tool:
(1) respectively exporting Netlist Report or Component Pin Report of two boards through a schematic circuit diagram drawn by Cadence or a layout Board file, wherein the two reports can be stored in different sheets of the same excel and are respectively named as a Board M and a Board N;
(2) the two sheets of the board M and the board N necessarily include three columns of data, namely, 'REFDES', 'PIN _ NUMBER', 'NET _ NAME', and three columns of blank data, namely 'identification bit', 'count' and 'identification', are inserted in front of the three columns of data. Wherein, the data of the column of 'identification bit' is fixed and can take any letter (such as D); counting the data in the column by adopting a function of COUNTIF to obtain the counting value of the cells in the same row of REFDES; the data of the column of 'identification' is to combine the values of 'REFDES', 'identification bit' and 'count' of the same row to generate a unique identification to facilitate the subsequent search of the row of data.
(3) And comparing the interconnection signal NAMEs of the connectors connected with the two boards, for example, if the connector JM of the board M is connected with the connector JN of the board N, a comparison sheet named JM _ JN is newly created, wherein the first three columns of the sheet are data of the board M and are named as 'identification _ M', 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M' and 'NET _ NAME _ M', respectively. Wherein the only value in the column of 'tag _ M' is the combined value JMD of JM and 'tag bit' in the two sheets in step two; the data in the column of 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M' is a 'PIN _ NUMBER' value corresponding to a 'identification bit' prefix in a table of the board card M, which is searched by a VLOOKUP function, wherein the prefix is a JMD median; the column of 'NET _ NAME _ M' is the same as 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M', except that the 'NET _ NAME' value is searched for and returned. The same operation obtains three columns of data of the connector JN of the board N, which are 'id _ N', 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N', and 'NET _ NAME _ N', respectively. The seventh column may be used to determine whether 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M' and 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N' are consistent, and if so, it indicates that the JM and JN connectors are directly connected, and may verify the consistency of the interconnection signals, that is, the eighth column determines whether 'NET _ NAME _ M' and 'NET _ NAME _ N' are consistent, that is, the purpose of checking is achieved.
(4) And if the JM and the JN are not directly connected through the verification of the table operated in the step three, establishing a table named as a corresponding relation, wherein the table only has two columns of data, namely 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M _ C' and 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N _ C', and listing the PIN NUMBER mapping relation of the JM and the JN.
After the correspondence table is listed, the ninth and tenth columns of data, namely 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N _ X' and 'NET _ NAME _ N _ X', are added to the JM _ JN table. The 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N _ X' data searches a 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N _ C' value corresponding to the same value of 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M _ C' in the corresponding relation table and 'PIN _ NUMBER _ M' in the table through a VLOOKUP function; the tenth column is a value of 'NET _ NAME _ N' corresponding to the same value of 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N' and 'PIN _ NUMBER _ N _ X' in the search table. At this time, the values of the same row of the third column 'NET _ NAME _ M' and the tenth column 'NET _ NAME _ N _ X' are connected, and then the eighth column is compared to see if the 'NET _ NAME _ M' and 'NET _ NAME _ N _ X' are identical, which is for the purpose of checking.
Establishing a template of an inspection report according to the implementation steps 1-4, in the using process, if the inspection object is replaced, that is, the board M and the board N are replaced, only three columns of data of 'REFDES', 'PIN _ NUMBER' and 'NET _ NAME' of the board table need to be replaced, and if the connected connector related to the inspected interconnection signal is replaced, only the 'identifier _ M/N' in the comparison table needs to be changed.
The embodiment provides an interconnected signal inspection system between PCBs based on Excel, including:
the first saving unit is configured to acquire a first signal name set of a first board card and save the first signal name set in a first sheet of Excel;
the second storage unit is configured to collect a second signal name set of a second board card and store the second signal name set in a second sheet of Excel;
