You can use Tcl commands to interact with your hardware under test. The hardware is organized in a set of hierarchical first class Tcl objects (see the following table).
| Tcl Object | Description |
|---|---|
| hw_sio_ibert | Object referring to an IBERT core. Each IBERT object can have one or more hw_sio_gt, or hw_sio_common objects associated with it. |
| hw_sio_gt | Object referring to a single AMD Gigabit Transceiver (GT). |
| hw_sio_gtgroups | Object referring to a logical grouping of GTs, could be a Quad or an Octal. |
| hw_sio_common | Object referring to a COMMON block. |
| hw_sio_tx | Object referring to the transmitter side of a hw_sio_gt. Only the TX related ports, attributes, and logic properties flows to the hw_sio_tx. |
| hw_sio_rx | Object referring to the receiver side of a hw_sio_gt. Only the RX related ports, attributes, and logic properties flows to the hw_sio_rx. |
| hw_sio_pll | Object referring to a PLL in either an hw_sio_gt or an hw_sio_common object. Only the related ports, attributes, and logic properties flow to the hw_sio_pll. |
| hw_sio_link |
Object referring to a link, a TX-RX pair. A link can also consist of a TX only or an RX only. |
| hw_sio_linkgroup | Object referring to a group of links. |
| hw_sio_scan | Object referring to a margin analysis scan. |
