PintoPin Environment Variables

ANSYSEM_INSTALL_DIR: This must be set and is used to locate Electronics Desktop runtime and AnsTranslator.

ECAD_TRANSLATORS_INSTALL_DIR: If set, this path is given priority in finding AnsTranslator.

ANSOFT_EXTRACTA_MICROVIAS: If set to 1, modify existing definitions with a bounding-circle hole equal to the defined array’s area. If set to 2, create a separate hole for each drill in the microvia array. AnsTranslator’s default treatment of microvia arrays is to use a bounding-circle for the hole. ANSOFT_EXTRACTA_MULTIDRILL_CONSERVE_AREA can alternatively be set to configure the hole with equivalent area to the drill array.

ANSOFT_EXTRACTA_USE_COMPCLASS_IO_IC: If set, use defined Cadence COMP_CLASS to determine IO and IC components explicitly. Otherwise, infer from refdes and value properties.

PINTOPIN_USE_LUMPED_RLCPORT: For RLC components assigned port models, use a lumped port instead of a circuit port.

PINTOPIN_CREATE_SIWAVE_SETUP_FROM_HFSS_SETUP: If set, for every HFSS setup, create an SIwave setup with default SI settings and an equivalent frequency sweep.

PINTOPIN_DEFAULT_BONDWIRE_PROFILE: If set, use this profile definition name for all bondwire instances.

EDBBUILDERUTILS_XMLSCHEMA_REPORTWARNINGS: If set, report schema validation warnings encountered during valiation. Otherwise, XML schema is strictly enforced.
