CR-8000 Design Force Tip Lengthening Patterns

Tech Tip: CR-8000 Design Force Tip Lengthening Patterns

Menu

Did you know when editing lengthening patterns in CR-8000 Design Force, you can modify the lengthening pattern, and meet your constraints all in one step?

Here’s how:

  • Enable Intelligent Router buy typing (CTRL- R) on the keyboard, or select the Intelligent Router icon located in the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
  • Select Track, Lengthen from the ribbon
  • Select your lengthening pattern that needs modification.
  • Right Mouse Button, Maintain Length, Meet Constraints.

This way you can move or modify the lengthening pattern and still meet your constraints all in one step. You can also change the mode, or edge style from this assist menu.

High Speed Design Demystified: LPDDR4 Design Explained

A trend towards low power design prevails in the electronics industry today and is not likely to change in the near future. This development is driven by many reasons but primarily by the performance and storage density demands of mobile devices, where a reduction of the power consumption is crucial to extending battery life without sacrificing the bandwidth. This comprehensive guide helps you mitigate LPDDR4 Design.
