to_time()

to_time converts a real value into a time value with respect to the current simulator resolution. The precision of the converted value is determined by the simulator resolution. For example, if you were converting 5.9 to a time and the simulator resolution was ps, then the time value would be 6 ps.

Syntax

timeval := to_time(realval); 

Returns

Name	Type	Description
		timeval	time	The real value represented as a physical type time with respect to the simulator resolution
