Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the need to interrupt the collection of state values in data transfer and the data transfer in the collection of the state values and to speed up simulating operation by using two memories and performing the state value collection and data transfer alternately to the two memories. CONSTITUTION:The logic simulator 1 assigns and judges the amount of data which can be stored in the memories and state value data matching addresses by a state value control mechanism 3 and the output state values 2 as simulation results are collected in, for example, a memory A4. Data are read out of a memory B5 while the data are gathered in the memory A4 by the state value control mechanism 3 and a storage mechanism 6, and the data are read out of the memory A4 while data are collected in the memory B5. Those processes are performed repeatedly to collect all the output state value data at a high speed by using only the two memories, thereby shortening the collecting time.

Conventionally, this type of logic simulator has only one memory, so when the state value collection in the memory reaches a full state, the state value collection is interrupted and the data in the memory is transferred to an external storage device. After the data is transferred, the system starts collecting state values again into the memory, and this series of operations is repeated.

Since state value collection in the conventional logic simulator described above uses one memory, state value collection and data transfer are performed alternately, and data transfer is interrupted during state value collection, and state value collection interruption processing is performed during data transfer. Since it is executed, it has the disadvantage that it takes a lot of time.
