Changing ADEXL output Spec depending on a Sweep variable

ayayla

Hi,

Is there a way to create a spec for an output expression in ADEXL depending on a sweep variable? Let's say I want to sweep an input tone for IIP3 measurement and for each input level, I have a different spec. If there is a way to use  "case" statement in spec, that would be great since that seems to be easiest and elegant solution.

Thanks

yayla

    See How to use a variable in a Spec in ADE Assembler and ADE XL - essentially you put VAR("someVar") as the spec limit.

    Andrew.

    Yes Andrew. I am using VAR("") in spec for fixed specs but how can I do sth like below?

    Let's say I have VDD as sweeping variable and checking is PSRR spec for different supply.

    VDD:      Spec:

    1V           >30dB

    0.9V       >27dB

    0.8V       >25dB

    thanks
