Setting the Equipotential Global Attribute for a Shared Pin

You can set the Equipotential Global attribute for a shared pin in Capital Logic Designer. Use of the Equipotential Global attribute is very similar to the use of the Equipotential attribute. The main difference is that Equipotential requires you to connect all the nets you want to combine to a single instance of a device pin. However, Equipotential Global allows you to combine all nets connected to any instance of the device pin.

For details of the effect of setting this, see Equipotential Nets at a Pin.

Procedure

Right-click an instance of the shared device pin in Capital Logic Designer and choose the Properties option from the pop-up menu.
The Edit Properties dialog box displays. Go to the Attributes section of the General tab.
For the Equipotential Global attribute, enter a string in the Value field; this value is used as the name of the combined signal in Capital Systems Integrator.Note When the Equipotential Global attribute is set, the Equipotential attribute is dimmed but is not cleared. The Equipotential Global value overrides the Equipotential value when the combined signal is named in Capital Systems Integrator.
Click the OK button to exit the Edit Properties dialog box.
