Summary

Changing the default simulator used in a new testbench?


Details

When creating a new testbench in your design environment, you may wonder if there’s a way to set a default simulator of your choice. Unfortunately, there is no user-accessible setting that allows you to change the default simulator.

By default, every new testbench is configured to use HyperLynx AMS as the simulator. This behavior is hardcoded into the system and cannot be altered by end-users through the interface or configuration files.

If you require a different simulator for your testbench, you will need to manually update the simulator settings after creating the testbench. This may involve accessing the simulation options within the testbench configuration and specifying your preferred simulator.

While this limitation may add an extra step to your workflow, understanding the default behavior can help you plan your process more efficiently. If you need further assistance, consider reaching out to the tool's support team or consulting the official documentation for additional guidance.
