Export values of output expressions

zyviva

Hi,

In ADE L, I have created various expressions that are saved as outputs. After my simulation is complete, the values of these expressions (some number) is displayed under the value column in the outputs table. How can I export these values en masse?

There is an Outputs-->Export option, but that exports the expressions and I would like the values.


I am running version IC6.16-64b.500.6


Thanks.

  • Hi Sarah,

    You could create an OCEAN script (Session -> Save Ocean Script) and modify it a little so that the values are printed out to a file. Keep the bits with the expressions and build the rest of the script around it, then you can load this file in the CIW or call it from the standalone "ocean" executable.  Here's a brief example:

    
:::::::::::::::::::::::
::: printExprs.ocn  :::
:::::::::::::::::::::::
openResults("./simulation/<your_circuit>/spectre/schematic" ) ;; modify as needed
selectResult('tran)
filePointer = outfile("./results" "w")
fprintf(filePointer ";; Output results for <your_circuit>\n") ;; modify as needed
;; iterate over the required nodes or you can print each expression 
;; as it is from the original oceanScript.ocn file
foreach((node val) list("/I0/D4/PLUS" "/I0/vout_R" "/I0/D4/PLUS")
                    list(2.8e-06 1e-05 1e-05)
  ocnPrint(?output filePointer
    strcat(node "\t")
    value(getData(node ?result 'tran) val)
  )
); foreach
close(filePointer)
println("Simulation results output to ./results")


:::::::::::::::
::: results :::
:::::::::::::::
;; Output results for <your_circuit>


/I0/D4/PLUS        2.81092n      


/I0/vout_R          0             


/I0/D4/PLUS        651.035p

    Note that you can use ocnPrint() to output to a file or file handle, it is simple to use but you may not have as much control as using fprintf statements directly (e.g. note the spacing between the output lines above).

    Hopefully this is the sort of thing that you are looking for?

    Regards,

  • The other (probably better) alternative is to use ADE XL, and then you can export the results to HTML or CSV.
