Title: Measuring average current in spectre Post by Dushyant Juneja on Aug 7th, 2013, 3:02am Hi, Possibly this goes a bit trivial, but I am having trouble measuring average current from spectre netlist. Its all hand written and command line based, so I am not using ADE calculator and stuff. Here's what I mention in my options file: Code:
However, this spits out an error during spectre simulation like this: Code:
Now, the point is: 1. My analysis name is *not* transient1, but tranExpt1. Why does it keep warning about something else? I have no analysis named transient1 in my netlist/options file. :o 2. How do I measure average currents for the experiment? I basically intend to measure power consumed by DUT during some time window through this. :-/ Would be grateful if you can kindly help. I am not open to going through the ADE GUI because I need to do numerous such experiments and am biased to scripting them out, eventually. Hence am looking for text based alternative. Dushyant. |

So, that clarifies why my analysis is being called transient1 in the log file errors. Its spp playing a part to give a proper analysis name for MDL. One thing cleared!!! ;D Am still doing experiments to get things going! Dushyant |
