Parametrization of artListToWaveform

StephanWeber

Hi,

I found that artListToWaveform( '(( 2M 287n )) ) puts nicely a dot in my ViVA plot at x=2MHz and y=287n.

However, my attempt to parametrize it failed, e.g. I want to replace 2M by 1/VAR("T") to make it more flexible. Also support for a reference to another existing ADE output would be good.

  • Stephan,

    It would rather help if you actually showed what you'd done which failed. 

    If you'd done:

    artListToWaveform('((1/VAR("T") 287n)))

    then that's hardly surprising that it would fail, since the quote means that nothing would be evaluated. If. you'd done:

    artListToWaveform(list(list(1/VAR("T") 287n)))

    then it will (sort of) work. However this is heading for a failure, because if you sweep T then it will plot - but if you try to go over the output and do a plot or plot all, it will fail - because in that case VAR() is a waveform and artListToWaveform won't work. You'd have to build a calculator function that deals with waveform and family data appropriately (see the many examples on these forums or at Custom IC Calculator SKILL Function Library

    Thanks Andrew! I found that an expression like this works at least to some degree:

    artListToWaveform( list(list(value(fr 0) value(Isc 0)) ))

    Isc and fr are ADE outputs here.

    Bye Stephan
