Joining a line between two points on the output waveform in Cadence Virtuoso calculator tool

Hello,

I would like to ask if it is possible to create a straight line on the output waveform that joins two selected points from the waveform by using the Cadence calculator tool

Thank you

Best Regards

    Mr. Andrew Beckett has written a SKILL function that can imported as a custom function in the Calculator that creates a line using the first and last points of its waveform. In you case, if you clip the waveform using the clip() function between the two points that you want to use to define your line, it seems that this function, when applied to the clipped waveform, will accomplish your task.

    His SKILL function, with instructions, is at the Cadence On-line Support site URL:

    I hope this helps Senan!
