Array of design variables for an array of Instances

VincentCheung
VincentCheung over 3 years ago

Basically same question as: https://community.cadence.com/cadence_technology_forums/f/mixed-signal-design/47008/create-an-array-of-variables-using-an-array-of-vdc-instances

Given: <0:3> instances of vpulse instances

Desire:

  • Assign desvar<0> design variable for <0> vpulse instance
  • Assign desvar<1> design variable for <1> vpulse instance
  • Assign desvar<2> design variable for <2> vpulse instance
  • Assign desvar<3> design variable for <3> vpulse instance
  • Simulate using spectre simulator in ADE Assembler

Does the bussetp.il method that Andrew wrote up work for this? support.cadence.com/.../ArticleAttachmentPortal

Can someone please confirm? Thanks!

Best regards, Vincent

    You can't have different design variables on each iteration of an iterated instance. All you can do is create separate individual instances or create a pcell (similar to bussetp) which does this for you. You wouldn't be able to use bussetp to do this, but you could use something inspired by it, I guess.
