Hopw to get cell type of a FF in design compiler?

[omid219]

Hi All,

Can anyone know how can I get the cell type of a FF in dc_shell?

For example I have a rgister named my_design/core/dsp/counter_reg_1_1. How can I get the cell type which this FF has been mapped to?

Thanks for your help,

Hi ,
I assume cell type means , ref name of the flop. Is it correct?. If so, below command will tell you which flop is mapped to your intended register.

Comamnd in DC :
get_attr [get_cell my_design/core/dsp/counter_reg_1_1] ref_name

let me know if it doesnt work or if you mean some thing else for cell type?.

Regards,
Sam

Hi Sam,

Yes, I was looking for the ref name and this command gives it. Thanks for your help.

maybe you can try the "report_cell" command
