USER_SUFFIX. The pattern is defined as
in the directive BLOCK_REF_DES_PATTERN.
When the user is applying this pattern on a block instance, the
UI shows the fields for the two variables which can be filled by
the user. This allows the user to specify a combination of suffi x
and prefix to apply on block RefDes.
If these parameters are specified, then the RefDes values
change accordingly.
For example, if USER_STRING is specified as 2 and
USER_SUFFIX is _A then the RefDes changes from U10 to
U210_A.
If the value of this directive is set to:
BLOCK_REF_DES_PATTERN
'($PHYS_DES_PREFIX)($USER_STRING)($SOURCE_VAL)
($USER_SUFFIX_1)($USER_SUFFIX_2)'
then, the menu looks like this
Now, if USER_STRING is specified as W, USER_SUFFIX_1 is _A and
USER_SUFFIX_2 is _B, the RefDes changes from U10 to
UW10_A_B.
