Functions to Work with Model Files

To work with the model files associated with a testbench, you can use the following SKILL functions:

• asiAddModelLibSelection
• asiGetModelLibSelectionList
• asiGetModelLibFile
• asiGetModelLibSection

A few examples that show how to add or view the model files associated with the tests are given below.

Example 1

Returns the model file name for the first model associated with a test:

session = (axlGetWindowSession (hiGetCurrentWindow))
=> "session0"
x_mainSDB = (axlGetMainSetupDB session)
=> 1001

axlGetTests(x_mainSDB)
=> (1004 
    ("opamp090:full_diff_opamp_AC:1" "opamp090:full_diff_opamp_TRAN:1")
)

testSession = axlGetToolSession(axlsession, "opamp090:full_diff_opamp_AC:1")
=> sevSession1

oSession = sevEnvironment(testSession)
=> stdobj@0x1c030668

modelList = asiGetModelLibSelectionList( oSession )
=> (("gpdk090.scs" "NN") ("fastmodel.scs" "FF"))

asiGetModelLibFile(car(modelList))
=> "gpdk090.scs"

Example 2

Removes the existing model files for a test, if any, and set a model file for it:

testName="AC"
=> "AC"

; get the handle to the session
session=axlGetWindowSession()
=> "session0"

; get the handle to the ADE L or test session
testSession=axlGetToolSession(session testName) 
=> sevSession1
oSession=sevEnvironment(testSession)
=> stdobj@0x1e213620

; remove any existing model files for the test
asiSetEnvOptionVal(oSession 'modelFiles (list (list "" "")))
=> t
(("" ""))

; add a model file to the test

asiAddModelLibSelection(oSession "testModelFile1.scs" "ss")
=> t

; you can use the asiGetModelLibSelectionList function to get the list of all
; the model files atached to the test

modelList = asiGetModelLibSelectionList( oSession )
printf("\tModel list = %L\n" modelList )
=>Model list= ("../models/spectre/gpdk045.scs" "mc") ("testModelFile1.scs" "ss") )
=> t

Example 3

Returns the details of model files associated with all the tests:

session = (axlGetWindowSession (hiGetCurrentWindow))
> "session0"

x_mainSDB = (axlGetMainSetupDB session)
> 1001

(foreach testName (cadr axlGetTests(x_mainSDB) )
    printf( "Test %s\n" testName)
    testSession = axlGetToolSession(session testName) 
    oSession = sevEnvironment(testSession)
    modelList = asiGetModelLibSelectionList( oSession )
    printf("\tModel list  = %L\n" modelList )
)

>Test AC

 Model list  = (("../adegxl/VAD_workshop_616/gpdk045_v_3_5/gpdk045/../models/spectre/gpdk045.scs" "mc") ("testModelFile1.scs" "ss") )

Test TRAN

 Model list  = (("gpdk045.scs" "mc") ("ind.scs" "TT") ("cap.scs" "TT") )
