Description

Read a hardware SIO sweep data directory and create a hw_sio_sweep object in the Hardware Manager feature of the AMD Vivado™ Design Suite.

The SIO sweep data can be written to disk using the write_hw_sio_sweep command, after running the sweep using the run_hw_sio_sweep command. This command reads the sweep directory containing multiple SIO scan data files.

If no hw_sio_sweep object is specified, a new hw_sio_sweep object is created and is named sequentially following any existing hw_sio_sweep objects. After being read from disk, any of the SIO scans in the sweep can be plotted and viewed in the Vivado serial I/O analyzer by using the display_hw_sio_scan command.

This command returns a hw_sio_sweep object, or returns an error if it fails.

Arguments

-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the set_msg_config command.

<directory> - (Required) The name of the dirctory containing the SIO sweep data to read.

<hw_sio_sweep> - (Optional) Specify an existing hw_sio_sweep object to read the scan data files of the sweep into. The hw_sio_sweep object can be specified by name, or as an object returned by the get_hw_sio_sweeps command.

Example

The following example reads the specified sweep directory and creates a new hw_sio_sweep object, then displays one of the hw_sio_scans from that sweep:

read_hw_sio_sweep C:/Data/SWEEP_1/
display_hw_sio_scan [get_hw_sio_scans {SCAN_86}]
