Stimulus file

Hi all!
i would like to add the stimuli as file (defining it in the setup
window in the ADE)
and the input is a bus of sources.
I have something as:
_vb0 (b<0> 0) vsource wave=\[0 0 500.0n 0 500.3n 1.8 ] dc=0
type=pwl
_vb1 (b<1> 0) vsource wave=\[0 0 502.0n 0 502.3n 1.8 ] dc=0
type=pwl

Unfortunately it gives problem with the <>, i have tried with
underscore
(in that case it simulates but it does not recognize these nodes as
corresponding to b<1:0>) and with some backslash, but i am not able
to find a working solution.

Do you have some experience on it?

thanks in advance

ese!

Put

_vb0 ([#b<0>] 0) vsource ...

A stimulus file gets preprocessed by the OSS system, and this will substitute
schematic names surrounded by [#...] to the corresponding netlist name. It might
need a "/" before the b (I can't remember off the top of my head) to tell it
that it is rooted from the top level design, but I think you can omit the
leading slash. If it's a hierarchical net, something like:

_vb0 ([#/I1/I2/net3] ...

would work.

The idea is that you then don't need to worry about how it got translated during
netlisting.

Andrew.

 

Thanks a lot!

_vb0 ([#b<0>] 0) vsource ...

is correct.
