Course Description
This course is an introduction to the Open Command Environment for ANalysis (OCEAN) language and its use in the Virtuoso® Analog Design Environment. OCEAN is a scripting language that is based on the SKILL® interactive programming language and uses SKILL syntax.
Through the use of operational labs (where you enter expressions into an interpreter) and programming labs (where you build your own functions), you explore ways to use OCEAN to run analog and mixed-signal simulations and manipulate your simulation results.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Use OCEAN to control simulations and analyze results
- Master SKILL syntax, loop constructs, and conditional statements
- Build and manipulate lists
- Define, develop, and debug SKILL functions and programs
- Read and write data to and from UNIX text files
- Develop custom calculator functions for waveform database objects
