Analog stimuli in ADEXL error

rkic
rkic over 13 years ago

I have created a pwl source using the analog stimuli option for a particular pin.

The pwl source has many variables (like slew rate, amplitude etc) which is defined in my design variable section of the test.

When i netlist the test, it netlists fine, there are no errors.

But when i try to run a simulation, i get the error " *WARNING* asiiEvalDesignValList: problem with variable slew

*Error*   in the Design Variables.  AEL's message:  data type error:
          cannot undefer "slew"

It feels like the analog stimuli are being read in before the design variables in some way, since in the design variables section i have the variable "slew" defined.

How should i overcome this error?

    I forgot to add that all the variables in my pwl have the same error not just the slew.
