spectre: fsdb output directly out of ADE

baenisch

Hi all

I'm working on a project based on IC6.1.3 with default MMSIM7.1 (which I can switch up to 10.1)

and I'm currently facing some large simulations and the waveform viewer is giving me the creeps ...

Therefore I tried some different formats that can be selected in the ADE Output Menu (sst2, psf ...)

but postprocessing, zooming and so on are still so sloooowwww. I searched through the

manual and found the possiblity to write fsdb. 

 

My problem is, that I get fsdb outputs if I run spectre from the command line with the output

set to fsdb, but I can't get it to work if I start simulations directly from ADE. I already set 

SPECTRE_DEFAULTS to -format fsdb but with no success. The switch seems to be

recognized, it's reported in the spectre-logfile but I don't get fsdb outputs :(

 

Can someone please give me some pointers on how to get fsdb as a default ?

At least until 6.15 is coming  with seems to get an all new waveform viewer

 

Best Regards

     Hi Andrew

     

    Thanks for the clarification. I switched to 10.1 and it's a bit faster now. 

    For the big ones I'll switch to the command line and a different viewer

     

    Best Regards
