Summary

Calibre extracted DSPF netlist for EMIR simulation gives incorrect results compared to CALIBREVIEW


Details

DSPF netlist is giving odd results in EMIR analysis however Calibreview netlist is working fine.

A potential root cause of this issue is that by default the included DSPF file is treated in a case insensitive way when the DSPF netlist is included in the simulation test bench.

This should be coupled by a warning in the simulation log that reports the case insensitivity handling when net names with different case are encountered.

To change the default behavior to case sensitive handling of net names in the DSPF netlist instead, change the case sensitivity option to "true" in the DSPF options within the Simulation testbench.
