Hi, I am writing a personal software that will read circuit design/ netlist. I will be using the MCNC benchmarks that contain different types of designs in SPICE netlist format.
I need some pointers/papers/suggestions on creating a "hierarchical" netlist database. The netlist database can, at times, be fully flattened, partially flattened or fully hierarchical. I should be able to answer queries like: are there any capacitors connected to node: x1.x2.n1? My program is currently only for analyzing designs for connectivity, types of elements (resistors/capacitors) and figuring out some simple electrical properties. I am just starting, so please bear with me if I haven't thought about corner cases. Regards Nick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
