2. Synopsys EDA Tools Description

This article tells how to install Synopsys VCS2016, Verdi2016, Design complier2016, Primetime2016, Formality2015, SpyGlass2016 software and basic environment configuration on centos7.9 system, the installation refers to the WeelCJ blogger’s Ubuntu environment installation method, and combined with centos environment to make part of the adjustment, so as to smooth installation, thanks to WeelCJ blogger’s good article.

Portal:The first step in digital IC design – Synopsys EDA Tools installation_synopsys dve_WeelCJ’s Blog – Blogs

Third, the EDA installation environment:

centos 7.9.2009 desktop version

Install the required files:

DesignComplier2016：

DC for short, is a core tool used by Synopsys to do circuit synthesis that converts HDL-described circuits into gate-level netlists based on process libraries. Reference is available:Getting Started with Design Compiler – Knowledge

Formality2015：

Synopsys Formal Verification ToolsFormalityThe design of the timing reordering can be verified.

Installer3.2：

        Synopsys official installation software, the above software except SpyGlass, all use it to install

Scl11.9：

Unified management of licenses and other documents

License：

The file used to generate the license

PrimeTime2016：

beSynopsyscontract-level, full-chip, gate-level static timing analysis tool

Vcs2016：

is a compiled code simulator that enables you to analyze, compile and simulate designs described in Verilog, VHDL, Hybrid HDL, SystemVerilog, OpenVera and SystemC. It also provides you with a range of simulation and debugging features to verify your designs. These features provide source code debugging and simulation result viewing.

Verdi2016：

A powerful debug tool that can be used with different simulation software for debugging, commonly used VCS+Verdi for code simulation and checking.

SpyGlass2016：

There are five modules: lint, CDC (multi-clock domain checking), LP (low power), Constraint (constraints), DFT (testability), is very powerful RTL verification level tools.

The order in which the software is installed:

Scl11.9 —— Vcs2016 —— Verdi2016 —— DesignComplier2016 —— Primetime2016 —— Formality2015

This is very important!!!

IV. Enter the main movie:Install with Synopsys Installer

1. Pre-installation preparation

①System centos 7.9 desktop installed in advance

       ② Download the installation package and unzip it (I put it under /home/EDA/Synopsys)

2. Installation of software

Go to the Installer3.2 path and execute SynopsysInstaller_v3.2.run.

cd Installer3.2
chmod 777 SynopsysInstaller_v3.2.run
./SynopsysInstaller_v3.2.run
enter (computer key)

Get the installation file we wantsetup.sh

Modifying the Synopsys.sat file

In the scl_keygen directory, open the Synopsys.sat file with Notepad

 Modify the second line by adding the path to the snpslmd directory in the scl11.9 installation directory after snpslmd.

The path where snpslmd is stored is as follows:

 

preservation

Put the Synopsys.dat file to the linux system “/home/synopsys/scl11.9/admin/license” directory

Also place the Synopsys.dat file in the license folder of the verdi2016 installation directory as well

 

Setting environment variables

Go to /root and edit the .bashrc file to add the EDA tool paths

cd  /root
vim .bashrc
