save currents in a spectre netlist, run the netlist in batch mode and the currents is saved as instance_name:number

ckseok

To save current into port "A" of instance "IDRIVER", I add the following line in the spectre netlist.

save IDRIVER:A

Then, I run the netlist in batch mode.

After simulation is finished, the result browser shows IDRIVER:2 instead of IDRIVER:A.

How can I make the simulator save current as Instance_name:port_name instead of instance_name:number?

Thank you.

    Hi Paul,

    In the CDF for the component, change the component name (in the spectre simInfo) to be (for example) "cellName_netlist" (and also change it in the included subckt definition).

    Then use the hierarchy editor to create a config, and you can specify the view to use on some instances to be your stopping view, whilst other instances remain the schematic view. Those with the schematic view will get netlisted as "cellName", and those using the stopping view will get netlisted as "cellName_netlist" (i.e. using the componentName in the CDF).

    I just checked this and it worked correctly.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
