EMPLOYING INTELLIGENT LOGICAL MODELS TO ENABLE CONCISE LOGIC REPRESENTATIONS FOR CLARITY OF DESIGN DESCRIPTION AND FOR RAPID DESIGN CAPTURE

Representing a logic device generally includes creating a model of a logic device, where the model represents a collection of variants of the logic device. A representation of the model may be used in a logic design and a particular variant of the logic device may be selected automatically based on connections made to the representation. Connection errors may be detected automatically and a first indication may be displayed automatically when the connection errors are detected. A second indication that differs from the first indication may be displayed automatically when the connection errors are corrected.
