Data export from Cadence to MATLAB

Bahaa

Hello all,

I have performed a simulation and got the results in a table in Cadence (From the caculator window) ...

I want to export these data to MATLAB and this is no problem .... My issue is that I have lots of columns mkaing it hard to write a code which plot all of these coloumns ... is there a way to combine the coloumns in tables in cadence in a way to make them in a single array of data ??? 

  • Dear Bahaa,

     I am not sure which version of Cadence you are using, but in IC6.1, one can append data into an existing table from the ViVA calculator directly. Ih this fashion, one can add a series of columns to an existing table. If the x-axis of the added data is not the same as the prior column, the append function will include a new column for the x-axis.

    For the greatest flexibility in the format of your data , it might be worth considering the use of the UNIX/Linux based commands cut, paste, and awk. An awk script can be created to format your individual column files and post-process it (if required) to the exact format you need from the comma-separated files generated from Cadence.

     

    I am sure others have recommendations too. The ViVA append tabular data command is highlighted in the attached file. I hope this helps and I understood your question correctly!

  • Another solution would be to use the Spectre Toolbox for Matlab (covered in the documentation) which allows you to directly read the simulation results into Matlab - no need to go via ASCII files.
