The +primary use so far has been for complex IC design. Supported +features include multi-level hierarchy, instance arrays, and +buses. If you're just doing flat designs for PC boards or +smaller SPICE simulations, the usual path is to use the spice-sdb +netlister for gnetlist instead. + +The long term goal of gnetman is far greater. Two projects under +consideration include a schematic generator, and a technology +mapping back-end for Icarus Verilog. Basically, gnetman is a +netlist manipulation database well suited for low-level +manipulation of netlists. |
