Description

Plots the signals specified in a list.

Arguments

l_signalList

List of signals to be plotted.

Specifies the list of signals in the following format:

(list (list resultsDir1 (list (list result1 (list signal1 signal2 ...) ...) ...)))

?plotStyle t_plotStyle

Plotting style.

Valid values are Append, Replace, New Window, and New Subwindow.

?graphType t_graphType

Type of graph.

Valid values are Default, Rectangular, Polar, Impedance, Admittance, Immittance, and RealvsImag.

?graphModifier t_graphModifier

Y axis of rectangular graphs.

Valid values are Magnitude, Phase, WPhase, Real, Imaginary, dB10, dB20.

?waveType g_waveType

Specifies whether the signal is Y versus Y or not.

Valid values are YvsY and nil.

Value Returned

t

Signals are plotted successfully.

nil

Signals cannot be plotted because of an error.

Examples

The following example plots the signals net10 and out from the results tran-tran in the results directory ampsim.raw.

awvPlotSignals('(("/servers/user/design/ampsim.raw" (("tran-tran" ("net10" "out"))))))

The following example plots the signals net10 and out from the results tran-tran in the results directory ampsim.raw, and signals jitter and delay from results tran-tran in the results directory prbs.raw.

awvPlotSignals('(("/servers/user/design/ampsim.raw" (("tran-tran" ("net10" "out")))) ("/servers/user/design/prbs.raw" (("tran-tran" ("jitter" "delay"))))))

The following example plots the signals net10, out, jitter, and delay. Note that net10 and out signals have dB10 as their y-axis because these signals have been plotted from an ac results.

awvPlotSignals('(("/servers/user/design/ampsim.raw" (("ac-ac" ("net10" "out")))) ("/servers/user/design/prbs.raw" (("tran-tran" ("jitter" "delay"))))) ?graphModifier "dB10")
