Changin strobeperiod

Bernd das Brot
Bernd das Brot over 15 years ago

Hello,

I'm running a transient long time simulation (spectreVerilog) and have to store several signals. Up to now I don't need the exact timing in the resulting data and therefore I set a strobeperiod which is about a quarter of the master clock periodto reduce the data.

 But now I need the "exact" timing for some special phases of the simulation (about 10% of the whole simulation time).

 I found the information, how to change the timestep during the simulation by using $bound_step in ahdl/verilog-a, but i don't want to influence the simulation steps but the stored values. Is there a way to tempoary change or disable the strobeperiod setting? 

thanks!

    If my memory is correct, you can use skipstart and skipstop to control the period of time overwhich strobeperiod applies.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
