lvsIgnore / lxRemoveDevice for K2 Chameleon

    I have a schematic with analoglib resistor instances for simulation.
    I want those instances to be ignored and treated as shorts for layout
    and verification. lvsIgnore and lxRemoveDevice work great for layout
    in VirtuosoXL, so problem #1 is solved. On this project we're using K2
    Chameleon tools for verification, however, and it will ignore the
    device instances, but leaves them as an open. Is there a similar device
    parameter like lxRemoveDevice that will cause Chameleon to short these
    instances' PLUS and MINUS pins?

  2. What databases does K2 Chameleon use for physical verification,
    Cadence cdba or cdl and gsd2?

    I'm not sure. It does a translation of the schematic and layout to SV
    DB (SVER).

    Cody,

    You can modify the SVER model name of the device to something
    unique(which is not found in the rules file)

    For example, you can call it RESISTOR_K2_SHORT and then you can delete
    the device using K2 SVCOMPARE OPTIONS file.

    In the "DELETE DEVICE" options you can add the "SHORT=YES" for this
    particluar model name.

    Plese let me know if you need any clarifications.

    Regards,
    Mohan R
