multiple analyses of same type in Ocean

Steve Mikes
Steve Mikes over 12 years ago

Is there a way to have multiple analyses of the same type in an Ocean script? For example, a Spectre netlist can contain something like this:

dcOp dc write="spectre.dc" maxiters=150 maxsteps=10000 annotate=status
dcOp2 dc write="spectre2.dc" maxiters=500 maxsteps=10000 annotate=status

How  does one do this in Ocean?

    In general, no. There are some specific cases where support has been added for multiple analyses of the same type (for example, the pnoise form allows you to specify up to 6 different pnoise analyses), but there's no general multiple-analysis support (yet) in ADE. Some work was done to enable this, but the challenge is getting all parts of the flow to work correctly - for example, the direct plot form, the calculator, and so on - there are lots of places which assume that there is (say) only a single transient analysis.

    However, you can workaround it using the approach I give in your other recent post, using a modelFile or stimulusFile to include analysis statements.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
