pss simulation - saving currents

JorisLambrecht
JorisLambrecht over 10 years ago

Hello,

when I do a PSS simulation (shooting) and try to plot the results in time 

domain (via Results - Direct Plot - Main Form - Function: Current), the node voltages can all be plotted but

the only some of the node currents are saved.

For instance, the currents through the inductors are saved but the drain current though a transistor is not:

ERROR: "/M0/D is not a kept output".

I can't find where it is defined which currents will be saved and which will not. 

I tried to add them to the "to be plotted" outputs manually, this doesn't work.

Then I tried pss - options - Output - save all, and outputtype "all", but the current still isn't saved.

Greetings,

Joris

    Hello,

    I forgot to check the to be saved box . If only the "to be plotted" box is checked,

    it doesn't save them unless the "to be saved" box is checked as well. My mistake.


    Thanks,

    Greetings,

    Joris
