21.4.17 sd_create_pin_slices
(Ask a Question)Description
This tcl command creates slices for a SmartDesign top level bus port or an instance level bus pin.
sd_create_pin_slices -sd_name {smartdesign component name} \
                     -pin_name {port or pin _name} \
                     -pin_slices {port or pin slices}Arguments
| Parameter | Type | Description | 
|---|---|---|
sd_name  | string  | Specifies the name of the SmartDesign component. It is mandatory.  | 
pin_name  | string  | Specifies the name of the bus port or bus pin to be sliced. It is mandatory. This command will fail if the port/pin isscalar or if the bus port/pin does not exist.  | 
pin_slices  | string  | Specifies the port/pin slices as a list of bus ranges which must be contained within the port/pin bus range. It ismandatory.  | 
| Return Type | Description |

| None | None | 
Error Codes
| Error Code | Description | 
|---|---|
| None | Parameter 'pin_slices' has illegal value.  | 
| None | Required parameter 'pin_slices' is missing.  | 
| None | Parameter 'pin_name' has illegal value.  | 
| None | Required parameter 'pin_name' is missing.  | 
| None | Parameter 'sd_name' has illegal value.  | 
| None | Required parameter 'sd_name' is missing.  | 
None  | Parameter 'param_name' is not defined. Valid command formatting is 'sd_create_pin_slices -sd_name "sd_name" -pin_name "pin_name" -pin_slices "[Ranges of pin slices]+"'.  | 
SDCTRL06  | Cannot connect output pin 'pin1' of 'instance' to output pin 'pin2' of 'sdesign' since they are both drivers. |

Example
This example creates slices for "Rdata" pin.
sd_create_pin_slices -sd_name {sub} \
                     -pin_name {Rdata} \
                     -pin_slices {[4:3] [2:0]}
