Corner Simulations of Multiple Test with dependent variables in ADE-XL

Skyler17
Skyler17 over 8 years ago

I am using ADE-xl to run three separate tests to simulation my bandgap circuit.  One for slope trim, the second for absolute trim, the third for a temp sweep with the proper trim values.  I am able to successfully pass these variables to the multiple test only when i am running a single simulation using "calcVal("Output Name" "Test Name").  When i attempt to run the simulation over corners, there seems to be an issue with the order it runs the tests causing variables to be undefined.  This only happens when i have more than two tests. Is there a way to override the order that the tests are run?

Example run order for a two corner simulation with three tests.

Test1 Corner1, Test1 Corner2, Test2 Corner1, Test3 Corner1, Test3 Corner2 (fail because it has not run Test2 Corner2 yet)

Thanks,

Skyler

    Skyler,

    This should not happen. Which IC subversion are you using? (Help->About will tell you, or typing getVersion(t) in the CIW).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
