OCEAN/SKILL scripting

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hi!
I want to automatize some simulations.
Let us say i have a circuit A.
Circuit A has a schematic view consisting of transistors and passive elements.
Circuit A has a Verilog-A view.

Do you know if it is possible to specify the  view (schematic or Verilog-A) i want to simulate
in OCEAN/SKILL without changing the netlist manually. Something like this in OCEAN/SKILL would be
cool, isn't it?

1) Circuit A in schematic
2) run
3) output Vout (lets us say a voltage on net called 'out') to a file.
4) Circuit A in Verilog-A
5) run
6) output Vout
7) calculate voltage difference between 3 and 6
8) plot the results

I tried to this for quite sometime but could not figure out how to do it. The roadblock
is that OCEAN gets the netlist from a location (the views are mentioned in the netlist)
and i don't want to get into netlist modification.

I know this can be done with config view but i am just thinking of a better way of doing it.

cheers

    Hi Gilbert,
    Thanks for the message. It was useful but i could not manage to shift views successfully.
    Instead, this information was very useful in what i wanted to do.
