Avoid unnecessary large file size in Cadence Transient Simulation

MenghanSun

Dear all,


I followed the instructions in manuals and online tutorials on running simulation in ADE. In the ADE environment, I specified the voltages at the nodes that I want to save and plot. However, it is still saving voltages at every single node, resulting in a very large "tran.tran.dat" file.


I remember when I was using HSPICE, I could specify voltages at the nodes I want, and it will only save those voltages into the waveform file. Can I do something like this in cadence?


Thank you very much,

    In ADE window, under outputs > save all, there is an option to save only the nodes you need. Its probably called "save selected" and the default is "allpub".
