Timing Check and Define

tcheck is used to turn timing check messages and notifier updates on or off for specific Verilog instances. +tcheck will consider timing for all flops, while -tcheck will not consider timing for the specified flop instance. +define indicates a compile-time switch. +define is placed before compile-time switches like +nospecify to define them properly, as the compiler will check the syntax. For example, +define+nospecify defines the nospecify switch for compilation.

Can you please elaborate on +tcheck and +define+?

when should we use tcheck ?


how +define is used? describe with a small example ?
tcheck
The tcheck command turns timing check messages and notier updates on or off for
a
specied Verilog instance.
If the command is hold)

+tcheck it will consider the timing for all the flops ( setup and

Suppose if we give a command - +nctle+tcheck


In tle, which ever flops timing we dont want to consider. The instance of that flop
we be mentioned.
Here, it will not consider the timings of the flops which are mentioned with tcheck,
and apart from that. It will consider timing for all the flops.
If the command is - -tcheck it will not consider the timing for the instance of the
particular flop ( setup and hold)

+dene is the compile time switch.


We are adding +dene switch before the switches which are used for compile time.
E.g
+dene+nospecify
+dene switch is used in front nospecify switch. Because nospecify is the compile
time switch. During compilation it will check the syntax of that switch. So, the
syntax for dening nospecify should be +dene+nospecify.
If you dene only +nospecify it will show error.
