Reading signals directly from transient analysis using "psf" command with data in SST2 format

vivkr

 Hi,

I usually write out signals out of the transient analysis data using the "psf" command built into spectre. This is faster than using ocnPrint and simpler. 

I suddenly see the following error now:

"./psf/tran.tran.trn":1,2: Error 35, syntax error found, header table missing

Is anyone familiar with this? I have been using MMSIM 10.11.235 which works well for me for a while and have been able to write out waves using this command so far. The Spectre command line in my log file looks like this:

/cte/tools/cds/MMSIM/10.11.235/tools.lnx86/spectre/bin/64bit/spectre  \
        input.scs +escchars +log ../psf/spectre.out -format sst2 -raw  \
        ../psf ++aps +mt=8 +lqtimeout 900 -maxw 5 -maxn 5

 I don't see anything different from the usual scenario, although I am not sure whether I was using the +sst2 option in the past or +psfbin. I suspect that "psf" does not work in this case. 

 Would anyone know what utility I would need to use to get hold of the data now?

Thanks,

Vivek

    Hi Andrew,

     Although I am not Vivek, I must comment that you should not even think about an apology! You have helped countless number of people - and no one can have all the facts at their beckon call all the time. It is amazing to me (anyway) how much you do have at your fingertips! The fact that others can "chip in" occasionally is one of the advantages I find of the forum medium.

    Thank you for all your help and guidance!
