ICONCON(2)

NAME
IconCon - icon connector

ORIGIN
cao-vlsi libraries, icon package, libIcn201.a

DESCRIPTION
The IconCon is used to describe a connector of an icon gate. Connectors describe the gate interface, and are the link between the logical view and the icon view, so the connector names must be the same.

Vectorisation are recognized by the name of the connector : <name>[<number>:<number>]. For example, the name a[0:31] indicate that 32 wires are connected to this connector. The corresponding connectors in the MBK logical view are named internally a 0, a 1, a 2, ..., a 31. So, the vectorisation allows the visualization of a high level circuit.

It is not recommended to access directly the C structure because the definition below does not reflect exactly the C structure. Access macros are supplied to access the fields. All access macros are defined in the file iac201.h.

The following C structure supports the description of the icon connector :
