Manually Exporting a Netlist

External programs used in the Foundation Series software require netlist in proprietary text formats such as XNF, EDIF, and structural VHDL or Verilog.

To export the project netlist, perform the following steps from Schematic Capture:

1. Select Options Export Netlist. The Export Netlist dialog box displays.
   
   
   
   
2. From the File of Type pulldown menu, select the desired format.
   
   
3. Choose the source netlist ALB file. By default, the project netlist is automatically selected.
   
   
4. Click OPEN to start exporting.
