Keep test specific model files unchanged in corner simulation

Zol
Zol over 2 years ago

Hi everybody,

I am looking for a way to preserve some model library settings from the standalone test in the corner setups as well.

I have a maestro view, which incorporate mulitple tests. For most of the tests I have alter statements defined in a text file. I include this file in the Model Libraries form of the appropriate test in the ADE Assembler. This is the only way I could manage to run alter statements in spectre with ADE.

The problem is that in Assembler's Corner Setup I can not select a test specific model library, and  if I omit the test specific model libraries, then these will not be included into the corner run.

How could I alter the sections of some model files for the corner simulation, but keep the rest of the libraries as they were defined in the tests?

    Rather than putting the file in the model setup, you could use the Definition Files on the Setup→Simulation Information form. This is then a per-test setup, and is included regardless of the model library setup. Model Library setup at the test level is replaced by the model library setup from the corners, so it needs to completely replace it. The Definition Files setting is not replaced by anything from the corners setup, so I think that's the way to go here.
