How can I automate noise margin calculation ?

marten

Hi all,

is there a way to automatically calculate the noise-margin of a given cell? For a single calculation I solve this manually by calculation the derivative of the output, and then determine V_IL, V_IH, V_OL, V_OH using the plot window.

Since I want to do Monte Carlo analysis, it would be better to have this automated. So, any suggestions from the community ?

Cheers,

Marten

  • Since this is working fine within the SKILL IDE, I tried to add this script as an ocean measuremet into my ADE XL setup.

    But when running Monte Carlo, nothing happens. No outfile gets written and also I am not able to check the "save"-checkbox for saving the calculated datasets. Plotting can be activated, but is useless since my script returns single integers.

    Do I have to convert my script to OCEANXL ?

    Cheers,

    Marten
