Title: time measurements in SimVision
Post by Pavel on Jan 31^st, 2007, 6:59am

Hello

How to measure time between 2 pulse transitions in SimVision.
by default, tool measures time between active cursor and baseline.
But baseline cannot be stuck to edge.

I didn't find how to measure time between 2 cursors.

Regards.

Pavel.

you can add a second cursor, or drag the baseline to the time point you want to use as your referecne

Baseline can't be alligned precisely (stuck) to pulse edge.

Pravel,
You can do that. It's easy as bellow .
You have TimeA cursor as default . You can creat a new cursor in Simvision call TimeB (See a little pull-down field in upper-left corner of simvision)

Both TimeA and TimeB can stick with edge.
Say you fixed the timeA first and move move TimeB to next stage .

Again in upper left side of simvision, you can change the time delta from Cursor - baseline to cursor - timeA

Hope this helps

Thank you for answer Zhong.

Maybe we use different packages, because I didn't find option you proposed.

Could you attach some picture that shows your approach.

In simvision upper left , click the down-direction arrow along with Cursor-baseline . A pull down show up , then select "delta" , then define the delta to be "cursor - timeA"

Looking your picture , It seems to me you are using very old version of simvision. Update to IUS57 or IUS58 , You can see the little arrow along with cursor-baseline and do what I mentioned in previous reply.

(Sorry, somehow, I am not able to attach the picture from my disk.)

IUS55-s008 is too old . Please update to IUS57 or IUS58 to see what I described in simvision.
The latest version of IUS is IUS583-s001 .
