2.9.0 release target; review-build/source evidence
Package applicability is under review; follow the stated version and platform limits.
Prepare the example
- Copy the complete supplied DFF example inputs to a writable working directory, including the circuit, verification specification and TOML configuration.
- Run the saved circuit in JoSIM®-Pro first and inspect its diagnostics and outputs.
- Make a working copy of the supplied 2.9 DFF configuration named DFF_verify.toml and set its top-level mode to "verify". The checked 2.9 review-build example defaults to "optimize", which starts a different, potentially long task. Keep the intended circuit/specification references.
- Run optimum-cli DFF_verify.toml. The Windows 2.9.0 review-build check printed Verify SUCCESSFUL. Confirm nominal verification before choosing margin, yield or optimize.
- Open generated CSV/TSV data or an optimised circuit in the GUI when inspection is needed.
Check path and solver assumptions
Relative verify.circuit and verify.file paths are anchored to the TOML file. The circuit's includes follow the simulator's own input rules.
The maintained Optimum™ manual requires fixed-step PHASE analysis with BDF integration; verification relies on uniformly sampled data. Simulation-backed verification still requires a valid JoSIM®-Pro licence and License Manager.
Verify the actual result
A configuration inspection is not a completed simulation. VAL-004 retains the earlier DFF nominal verification. The complete resistor-study guides now record separate current-source margin, yield and optimisation checks; those do not establish DFF margins or a full GUI workflow.
Choose the applicable run route
The maintained current 2.9 GUI has Run > Optimum™ studies and typed native study/adoption support. This starting answer retains its checked CLI route. Complete Windows GUI task/cancel/adoption interaction and final-package checks remain separate; the manual still contains a legacy CLI-only handoff paragraph, tracked as KB-DOC-003.
Sources and verification details
Recorded inputs/builds only. Complete walkthrough and final-package acceptance remain separate.
VAL-004 · Optimum™ from JoSIM®-Pro 2.9.0 Windows review build; release target
Nominal CLI verification only
Nominal verification checked on the 2.9 review build. Margin/yield/optimisation and final release-package checks remain pending.
- support:SUP-018 · Generalised editorial finding; outcome qualification retained
- josim-pro:docs/manual_source/sections/optimum.tex · First workflow; installed DFF example; input resolution; simulation contract
- validation:windows-cli-20261102 · VAL-004; scope and limits recorded
- owner:technical-review-20261102 · JoSIM®-Pro 2.9 chosen as the public starting path; release availability must be checked before publication
- Support history informed this draft. Current-source guidance has been checked; a fresh walkthrough on the intended distributed release and product-owner review remain pending.
- Maintained source now also documents Run > Optimum™ Verify... through the native API. This article retains the CLI starting path; GUI Verify and its final-package availability require separate review and execution.
- The changed Optimum™ source was reviewed individually on 3 November. Its current GUI introduction and legacy handoff paragraph conflict; the CLI scope and pending GUI checks remain explicit.
