MAX+PLUS II/Cadence Interface File Organization

Table 1 shows the MAX+PLUS^® II/Cadence interface subdirectories that are created in the MAX+PLUS II system directory (by default, the /usr/maxplus2 directory) during MAX+PLUS II installation. For information on the other directories that are created during MAX+PLUS II installation, see "MAX+PLUS II File Organization" in MAX+PLUS II Installation in the MAX+PLUS II Getting Started manual.

Table 1. MAX+PLUS II Directory Organization
Directory	Description
./lmf	Contains the Altera-provided Library Mapping File, cadence.lmf, that maps Cadence logic functions to equivalent MAX+PLUS II logic functions.
./examples/cadence	Contains the sample files for Cadence software discussed in these ACCESSSM Key Guidelines.
./cadence	Contains the AMPLE userware for the MAX+PLUS II/Cadence interface.
./simlib/concept/alt_max2	Contains the MAX+PLUS II primitives, including CARRY, CASCADE, EXP, GLOBAL, LCELL, SOFT, OPNDRN, DFFE (D flipflop with Clock Enable), and DFFE6K (D flipflop with Clock Enable and both Clear and Preset for FLEX® 6000 devices only) for use with Concept software.
./simlib/composer/alt_max2	Contains the MAX+PLUS II primitives, including CARRY, CASCADE, EXP, GLOBAL, LCELL, SOFT, OPNDRN, DFFE (D flipflop with Clock Enable), and DFFE6K (D flipflop with Clock Enable and both Clear and Preset for FLEX 6000 devices only) for use with Composer software.
./simlib/concept/alt_lpm	Contains the MAX+PLUS II megafunctions, including library of parameterized modules (LPM) functions, for use with Concept software.
./simlib/concept/max2sim	Contains the MAX+PLUS II/Concept simulation model library, max2_sim, for use with RapidSIM software.
./simlib/concept/alt_syn	Contains the MAX+PLUS II synthesis library, alt_syn, for use with Synergy and Concept software, and the vlog2alt utility.
./simlib/composer/alt_syn	Contains the MAX+PLUS II synthesis library, alt_syn, for use with Synergy and Composer software.
./simlib/concept/lpm_syn	Contains the Cadence LPM library, lpm_syn, for use with Synergy and Concept software.
./simlib/composer/lpm_syn	Contains the Cadence LPM library, lpm_syn, for use with Synergy and Composer software.
./simlib/concept/alt_mf	Contains the MAX+PLUS II VHDL logic function library. (a_8count is for the MAX® 7000 and MAX 9000 device families only.)
./simlib/concept/edifnet/templates	Contains template files for Concept directives, i.e., global.cmd, compiler.cmd, vloglink.cmd, verilog.cmd, and master.local.
./simlib/concept/alt_max2/verilogUdps	Contains Verilog HDL modules that are the equivalent of the primitives contained in alt_max2 library for use with Concept software.
./simlib/composer/alt_max2/verilogUdps	Contains Verilog HDL modules that are the equivalent of the primitives contained in alt_max2 library for use with Composer software.
./simlib/concept/alt_vtl ./simlib/composer/alt_vtl	Contains VITAL library source files for use with Concept or Composer software.
./simlib/composer/alt_max2/verilog	Contains simulation modules for all symbols in the alt_max2 Composer library.
