How to generate warning messages for transient analysis?

AnnaS

Hi All, 

It's will be great if someone can help me to generate warning messages in transient analysis for transistor devices when a voltage reaches above a certain threshold on the gate. I don't know how can I generate these massages neither from gui nor from ocean script.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Anna

    Hi Anna,

    I just checked this in IC614, but I think it's the same in IC5141 (just didn't have a chance to check). Go to Simulation->Options->Analog and find the parameter checklimitdest (in IC614 this is in the Check Tab, under the Device Checking Options). It's probably set to psf, but if you set it to "both" you'll see the warnings in the log file (unless you specify a separate file for the violations).

    By having it in the psf (the default), you can do Results->Violations Display and interactively look at each violation.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
