How to plot a graph?

leongec
leongec over 16 years ago

hello all, i am a newbie for cadence

 I would like to plot a graph on the wavescan. Instead of getting the plot data  from simulation, i need to plot a graph with my own equation. For my understanding, i should load a .raw file into the graph window. My another problem is, how to generate .raw file?

 

Thank you for your advice!

    Hi I want to plot the graph on the wavescan. Data for this graph is not from the simulation. 
    It is measurement data and had been save as .csv. I need this to compare with simulation result. I have tried two methods as suggested above:
    1. I open the .csv file in wavescan and the pop up error: document root element is missing". I've include the sample file as follows:

    ";X, Y"
    ";Re, Re"
    ";freq, S21"
    ";Hz, dB"
    1.50E+09,-4.15E+00
    1.51E+09,-4.17E+00
    1.51E+09,-4.17E+00
    1.52E+09,-4.10E+00
    1.52E+09,-3.94E+00
    1.53E+09,-3.82E+00
    1.53E+09,-3.79E+00
    1.54E+09,-3.88E+00
    1.54E+09,-4.01E+00

    2.I use getasciiwave command. There is a syntax error in input. for getasciiwave command I save the input file as .txt. 

    Can anyone help me solving the problem?
