Resets the circuit status.
The Reset State command resets the circuit status differently depending on the
mode from which you issue the command. The following describes what the
command does for each system mode:
mode from which you issue the command. The following describes what the
command does for each system mode:
•
In the ATPG system mode the command resets the faults to be undetected
in order to run a new simulation, deletes the internal patterns, and when
using FlexTest, resets the circuit status.

When FlexTest resets the circuit status it re-reads the RAM intitialization files and
resets all sequential elements to their initial states.
resets all sequential elements to their initial states.
Examples
The following example first performs an ATPG run, then resets the circuit status,
resets the faults to be undetected, deletes the internal patterns, and finally,
performs a new ATPG run:
