How to save sparameter simulation output in different files for different corners

AmoghD

I am running sp simulation and saving an sparameter file as output. There is an option in the test to save a file. How do I make this file corner specific? I.e if I run multiple corners, I want multiple files saved.

    Don't give a full path to the file name - just give it a simple path such as "myoutput.s5p". Then it will (if using anything from IC616 ISR11 onwards, together with MMSIM141 ISR5 onwards) generate the file in the netlist directory for each point in the sweep in ADE XL/Explorer/Assembler. If you want it in the psf directory instead, you could use "../psf/myoutput.s5p".

    If using an older version (and my first question would be "why?"), you can use the method described in this article to prevent it writing the results into a common directory: How to disable "outdir" option in ADE XL simulation with verilogA
