OCEAN Aliases

The aliases in this chapter provide you with shortcuts to commonly used pairs of commands. By default, these aliases operate on results previously selected with selectResult. However, you can also use an alias on a different set of results. For example, to specify a different set of results for the vm alias, use the following syntax.

vm( t_net [?result s_resultName] )

where s_resultName is the name of the datatype for the particular analysis you want.

You can use the vm alias on results stored in a different directory as follows:

vm( t_net [?resultsDir t_resultsDir] [?result s_resultName] )

where t_resultsDir is the name of a different directory containing PSF results, and s_resultName is the name of a datatype contained in that directory. (If you specify another directory with t_resultsDir, you must also specify the particular results with s_resultName.)

List of Aliases
Alias Syntax Description

vm

vm( t_net [?resultsDir t_resultsDir][?result s_resultname]) => o_waveform/nil

Aliased to mag(v()). Gets the magnitude of the voltage of a net.

vdb

vdb( t_net [?resultsDir t_resultsDir][?result s_resultname]) => o_waveform/nil

Aliased to db20(v()). Gets the power gain in decibels from net in to net out.

vp

vp( t_net [?resultsDir t_resultsDir][?result s_resultname]) => o_waveform/nil

Aliased to phase(v()). Gets the phase of the voltage of a net.

vr

vr( t_net[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultname]
)
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to real(v()). Gets the real part of a complex number representing the voltage of a net.

vim

vim( t_net[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultname]
) 
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to imag(v()). Gets the imaginary part of a complex number representing the voltage of a net.

im

im( t_component
[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultName]
) 
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to mag(i()). Gets the magnitude of the AC current through a component.

ip

ip( t_component[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultName]
) 
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to phase(i()). Gets the phase of the AC current through a component.

ir

ir( t_component[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultName])
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to real(i()). Gets the real part of a complex number representing the AC current through a component.

iim

iim( t_component
[?resultsDir t_resultsDir]
[?result s_resultName]
) 
=> o_waveform/nil

Aliased to imag(i()). Gets the imaginary part of a complex number representing the AC current through a component.
