Probing waveform values at a specific time from FSDB

andyvanb

I would like to probe waveform values at a specific time from FSDB.

I have an FSDB file from a lengthy SPICE simulation, I want to use a script to be able to obtain the values of a waveform at a specific time.

The inputs would be the fsdb file, the waveform name, the time to read the value.

Ideally, the example would work from within Python.

I looked through the forums and did a search for this...

  • Not sure which simulator you're talking about (since you say "lengthy SPICE simulation"), but FSDB is not a Cadence output format. It's supported in Spectre as an output format, and ViVA can plot the data too. However, I'm not sure Cadence is the place to come for a python interface to FSDB - maybe you should ask Synopsys?
