IC5 Ocean autostop statement

TjaartOpperman

I am executing Ocean simulation commands in the icfb, using IC5.033. I have set up an mdl file that measures settlingtime. I am however unsure how the activate the spectre autostop feature using the analysis statement. The Spectre manual clearly indicates that this feature is supported.

What I have tried is the command:

analysis('tran ... ?additionalParams "autostop=yes") that I have found to work in IC6 on previous occasions.

In the IC5.033 ADE gui, under the options for the tran analysis, I am unable to find any reference to the autostop feature anywhere on the form.

  • I can't quite remember (IC5033 is 7 years old) but I think it didn't have an Additional Parameters field on the Transient Options form (which is what you're trying to use with the OCEAN call you've given). It's not directly on the form because it's an option that only makes sense with MDL, and ADE doesn't really support MDL directly - so the only was is via the Additional Parameters backdoor (and as I said, I can't quite remember when that was added - quite possibly it wasn't there in IC5033).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
