design/global variable expression

sjwprcker
sjwprcker over 4 years ago

Hi,

I would like to write the design/global variable as: [1:1:10]*(1-x), x is another variable, it is supposed as a vector times some other expression, but assembler reports the syntax error.

Is there any solution can do such a job?

my virtuoso version is IC618-64b-500.18.

    If I assume your variable is called "myvar", then you could do this:

    sweepvar: 1:1:10
    x: whatever you want
    myvar: sweepvar*(1-x)

    Then the variable myvar will have 10 values, 1*(1-x), 2*(1-x), 3*(1-x) etc. You just have to separate the sweep to be a different variable than the combined expression.
