Can the format of CreateDatasheet be changed in Assembler?

ichiro

I would like to change the Summary table of Simulation results to include Max and Min but also Nominal.

I could not find a setting for this in some of the check boxes by pressing the generate button.

  • I started looking at this thinking it might be doable by changing the datasheetMainDoc.xsl (copying the standard one from the installation) and then changing it to do what you want - and referencing the new one with the adexl.datasheet mainDocXSLFile cdsenv var. However, there are two main challenges with this:

    1. The historyName.xml file that the XSLT is transforming into HTML only contains the min and max values for each measurement (across all sweeps and corners) and no "nominal" value - so to retrieve that it would need to get this from the test-specific XML file. That wouldn't be entirely trivial and the XSLT would be quite complex to achieve this
    2. The bigger problem (which is why I didn't persist with my experiments) is that if there are sweeps set up, there would multiple "nominal" values (all "nominal" means in ADE in this situation is that it runs with the test-specific models rather than a corner) so there's not going to be a single value to display in the top-level table. Because of this I don't think the request really makes sense. The test-specific XML contains the values for each corner and each sweep point.

    XSLT is not for the faint-hearted (I've done a fair bit of XSLT including data sheet customisation in the past), and so I would have recommended filing an enhancement request - but point 2 above means that I don't think there's a way to do this anyway since there is no single nominal value.

    Regards,
