IC Design Specification Lifecycle

The IC Design Specification contains the specification for a block or chip.

An IC Design Specification is created in the NotReady state and passes through the lifecycle states listed below. When the specification is promoted, the app sends a message to the DesignSync server to tag the related object with the state name. You can quickly determine where a specification is in the design process by looking at its tag.
