how to run Corner analysis over parametric analysis

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi, there:
    I try to run Corner analysis over parameter analysis like this

loadPcf("xxxxx.pcf")
parameterAnalysis("id" ?values '(90u 100u 110u))
cornerRun()    
cornerMeas()

but the results have no parameter result. only corner simulation result.

How to do a corner analysis over parameter analysis?


Thanks

    Hi, I try to overcome this but ....

    I think I have done something dumb as shown below
    foreach(device '("tt" "ss" "ff")
    foreach(element '("typ" "min" "max")
    modelFile(
    '("/xx/xx/1.scs" sprintf(nil "%s" device))
    '("/xx/xx/2.scs" sprintf(nil "%s" element))
    )
    paramAnalysis("id" ?values '(90u 100u 110u)
    paramAnalysis("vd" ?values '(1.62u 1.8u)))
    paramRun()
    )
    )

    which does not work, seems that foreach statement can not be nested and the sprintf can not give the model file a right section definition.

    Can someone give me some tested script to do all that job? It is such a tedious work to manually write down several hundreds corners definition in a pcf file.

    Thanks

    Nesting foreach isn't a problem. The problem is that you have quoted lists in the call to modelFile, and so these won't get evaluated.

    Your call to modelFile should be:

      modelFile(
    list("/xx/xx/1.scs" device)
    list("/xx/xx/2.scs" element)
    )
    There was no need to have the sprintf's in there - you can pass the variables directly. Quoted lists don't evaluate anything within the '(...), whereas the list() function evaluates all its arguments before creating the list.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
