CODE V 10.4 Service Release 1 (SR1) Is Available for Download

We are pleased to announce that CODE V 10.4 SR1 is now available for download.

We strongly encourage all CODE V 10.4 users to apply this service release patch.

This patch requires that CODE V 10.4 has already been installed on your PC. If you do not have version 10.4 installed, go to the Synopsys SolvNet website to download the software and license keys: https://solvnet.synopsys.com.

Issues Resolved in CODE V 10.4 SR1

This service release corrects several issues, including the following:

  • Modifies the CODE V GUI so that when entering options (like Automatic Design, AUT), menu items are disabled. This prevents CODE V from hanging or entering an infinite loop if menu items are executed when option dialogs are active.
  • Resolves several bugs with the SDERIVF macro function, primarily related to surfaces with interferogram (.INT) files attached.
  • Resolves several issues with the INT_DEPART macro function, including improvements to account for CODE V's sign conventions for surface interferograms.
  • Resolves a tolerance compensation problem when using a Zernike coefficient performance metric.
  • Fixes a problem introduced in CODE V 10.3 with cosine ripple surface amplitude and slope tolerances (RPA & RPS) where the wavefront differentials were incorrectly computed.
  • Resolves two problems introduced in CODE V 10.3 with fictitious glass specifications.
