virtuoso plot issue

sjwprcker

Hi,

For a long time, i got the issue of waveform plotting in assembler (even in old tool, adexl). 

Assume i have edited the expression --> VT("net_output"). After simulation, this result show a normal check. So in theory, i can use right-click menu to plot this signal. 

However, sometimes this doesn't work, in CIW, it says can not plot "nil". 

But, if open result browser, i can locate this net, and plot it, which still works. 

Could you do me favor to clarify the reason for this issue?

  • I suggest you contact customer support. I can't think of any particular generic reason why something this commonly used would fail in this way. There are a lot of variable factors that might have an influence, such as (and this is not exhaustive)

    • The IC tool sub-version
    • The simulator used and sub-version used
    • The output format
    • Whether the data is marked as saved or not
    • Whether you're sweeping something 

    Debugging this in the forum is not very easy and the best solution would be to contact customer support, so I'd recommend you do that.

    Hi Andrew, 

    The Virtuoso version is IC6.1.8-64b.500.2.

    The simulator is APS. 

    The output format is psfxl

    The net is saved

    I am running with multiple corners, like process and temperature.
