NAME

       lxt2vcd - Converts LXT2 files to VCD

SYNTAX

       lxt2vcd [option]... [LXT2FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       Converts  LXT2  files to VCD files on stdout.  If an output filename is not specified, the
       VCD is emitted to stdout.  Note that "regular" LXT2 files will convert to VCD  files  with
       monotonically  increasing  time  values.   LXT2  files which are dumped with the "partial"
       option (to speed up access in wave viewers) will dump with monotonically  increasing  time
       values per 2k block of nets.  This may be fixed in later versions of lxt2vcd.

OPTIONS

       -l,--lxtname <filename>
              Specify LXT2 input filename.

       -o,--output <filename>
              Specify optional VCD output filename.

       -f,--flatearth
              Emit flattened hierarchies.

       -n,--notruncate
              Do  not shorten bitvectors.  This disables binary value compression as described in
              the IEEE-1364 specification.  (i.e., all values except for '1' left propagate as  a
              sign bit on vectors which do not fill up their entire declared width)

       -h,--help
              Display help then exit.

EXAMPLES

       To run this program the standard way type:

       lxt2vcd filename.lxt
              The VCD conversion is emitted to stdout.

LIMITATIONS

       lxt2vcd  does not re-create glitches as these are coalesced together into one value change
       during the writing of the LXT2 file.
