AMS Probe Include Statement

Eshar

I know that a TCL file can have a probe statement like the following:

probe -vcd muxdff -depth all -exclude mux_m1:d*

This statement probes all objects minus all objects following the mux_m1:d* pattern. My question is whether the opposite operation can be done, i.e. probe only objects that fit the pattern mux_m1:d*.

Also, can this operation of only probing objects that fit a pattern be done for currents (using -flow -ports maybe)?

Thanks.

  • This is covered in the Incisive Simulator Tcl Command Reference (run <INCISIVinstDir>/tools/bin/cdnshelp and search for "probe Tcl") - or look  in <INCISIVinstDir>/doc/tclcmdref/tclcmdref.pdf . It's in a section headed:

    1.3     Using Wildcards Characters in Tcl Commands

    At least in the version I'm looking at (INCISIV14.1). It describes when and where you can use wildcards. I think you can use it for both signals and currents, provided that the wildcard is in the leaf part (rather than the scope part).

    Regards,
