For ADE Assembler, is there an option to "Save simulation data" on specific nets for transient simulation?

UniFleSou

Hello,

My situation is as follows: I am running transient simulation with ADE Assembler on a layout-extracted circuit. It contains a lot of nets, and the simulation results file size will quickly blow up if I chose to save all simulation data. However, if I only save the simulation data for "Quick Plot Data Only", then I will not able to see anything in the result browser. The way to access the options for saving simulation data is shown in the screenshots.

My question is as follows: I was wondering if there is a way to save the simulation data only on specific nets in ADE Assembler? 

In case it is needed, the cadence virtuoso version is : ICADVM20.1-64B.500.18, and the spectre version is 21.1.0.246.isr4.

    Over the Outputs pane for an output on your test, go to Right Mouse->Save All. On this form change the "Select signals to save" from "allpub" to "selected". You'll then need to ensure that the outputs you want saved are in the ADE outputs (either used in an expression or explicitly saved, which you can do with Right Mouse->To be saved over the outputs pane.

    The quick plot is purely for being able to quickly plot transient data. It's not the full data.

    Thank you for the kind help! I was able to reduce the simulation file size as per your instruction.
