Ocean script method to modify spectre netlist

markbeck

I was trying to figure out how I can modify the netlist that is simulated in ocean.  I would like to have the ability to arbitrarily add instances (of any type) into the netlist that is simulated with the run() command.

I finally figured out that if you have skill statements in your ocean script to that create a file with your new instances that you wish to add. 

You can add them into your schematic with:

stimulusFile( "Name of new File" ?xlate nil)

    You don't need to put the "simulator lang=spectre" in the file if you give the filename a ".scs" suffix - that will ensure it is interpreted as spectre syntax.

    And I assume it should have said "param=" not "pram="!

    Regards,
