70: .SH DESCRIPTION
71: The
72: .I fizz
73: suite of programs handle all the physical aspects of creating a
74: wire-wrap, buried micro-via or microwire board.
75: All the programs take
76: .IR fizz (10.5)
77: input;
78: .IR cdl (10.5)
79: can be converted with
80: .IR "fizz cvt" .
81: .PP
82: All of the programs can take multiple files;
83: most of the programs require that the files form a board description.
84: Normally, this is arranged amongst four files (with recommended suffix):
85: the board and special signal layout
86: .RB ( .brd ),
87: the chip, chip type and net descriptions (from
88: .IR cdmglob (10.1))
89: .RB ( .wx ),
90: the package descriptions
91: .RB ( .pkg ),
92: and the chip positions
93: .RB ( .pos ).
94: In general, if the file arguments are missing, standard input is used.
95: .PP
96: .I Fizz artwork
97: prints various artwork information for the board definition in
98: .IR files .
99: The options are
100: .PP
101: .PD 0
102: .TP
103: .B -a
104: prints XY mask clump includes for all placed chips with artwork
105: fields in their package definitions.
106: .TP
107: .B -r
108: prints bounding rectangle information for the microwire router.
109: .TP
110: .B -s
111: generate silk screen information for chip layout.
112: .PP
113: .I Fizz check
114: checks the syntax and consistency of the given
115: .IR files .
116: The
117: .B -u
118: option causes the names of any unplaced chips to be printed.
119: .B -w
120: checks readiness for wrapping.
121: Specifically, it checks that no net is too large;
122: no chip pin coincides with an inappropriate special signal pin,
123: and no chip pin appears on more than one signal.
124: Option
125: .BI -c chip
126: prints out detailed information about the named chip.
127: .PP
128: Clips are simply pins on a wirewrap board.
129: Almost always they are directly connected to a signal plane.
130: Clips do not exist in the rest of the
131: .I fizz
132: system; they are simply special signal pins.
133: .PP
134: .I Fizz clip
135: takes a board description (in
136: .IR files )
137: and a clip description file
138: .RI ( clipfile )
139: and checks that all of and only the clips specified are present.
140: Standard input is used if there are no file arguments.
141: The output reports missing clips in a format suitable as part of a board description.
142: The clipfile consists of directives (one per line) of the forms
143: .ti 17n
144: .RB [ ssig | pin ]
145: .I numbers
146: .RB [ chip | type ]
147: .I identifiers
148: .br
149: .ti 17n
150: .B tt
151: .RB [ chip | type ]
152: .I identifiers
153: .PP
154: Clips are put on either specific chips with the given names
155: .RB ( chip )
156: or chips of specified chip types
157: .RB ( type ).
158: The clips are put on either the specified pins
159: .RB ( pin )
160: or pins belonging to the specified special signals
161: .RB ( ssig ).
162: The identifier
163: .B ALL
164: refers to all chips or types.
165: Lines starting with a
166: .B %
167: are ignored.
168: The
169: .B tt
170: directive means pins whose entry in the
171: .B tt
172: field of the type (or the chip's type) is one of
173: .BR GVWXYZ .
174: For example,
175: .TP
176: .B
177: ssig 0,1 type 74F374 74F245
178: Clips on power and ground for all chips of type
179: .B 74F374
180: and
181: .BR 74F245 .
182: .TP
183: .B
184: pin 3-6,9 chip widget
185: Clips on pins 3,4,5,6,9 on chip
186: .BR widget .
187: .PP
188: .I Numbers
189: are specified as a
190: comma-separated list, possibly including
191: .BI \& lo - hi
192: ranges.
193: .PP
194: A missing
195: .I clipfile
196: argument is taken as
197: .ti 17n
198: .B
199: tt type ALL
200: .PP
201: .I Fizz cvt
202: converts \s-2CDL\s0 format input and outputs it in
203: .IR fizz (10.5)
204: format.
205: If no
206: .I files
207: are specified, standard input is read.
208: Typically,
209: .I fizz cvt
210: is used to process the output of
211: .IR cdmglob (10.1).
212: .PP
213: .I Fizz draw
214: generates a
215: .IR plot (10.5)
216: description of the board layout of

243: .PP
244: .I Fizz drills
245: takes a board description (in
246: .IR files )
247: and a set of drill diameters
248: .RI ( diams )
249: and produces a wraplist
250: (like that produced by
251: .I "fizz wrap" (10.1))
252: with an entry for every pin
253: whose diameter is in that set.
254: .PP

279: .IR files ).
280: It requires a Teletype 5620 terminal running
