Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL

Length : 1 day

Course Description

In this course, you use the Virtuoso^® Visualization & Analysis XL tool to browse, evaluate, analyze and plot your simulation results from Virtuoso ADE Explorer. You use it as a separate tool as well as an integrated graph assistant inside the ADE Explorer. Using the Results Browser, you access the simulation database. You then use the Calculator to post-process information and use the Direct Plot Form from the ADE Explorer to plot specific analysis-related information directly on the waveform viewer.

Learning Objectives

After completing this course, you will be able to:

• Use the Virtuoso Visualization & Analysis XL tool to view simulation results in the waveform viewer
• Use the graph tool as an integrated assistant in the Virtuoso ADE Explorer
• Work with the plotting and measurement options available in ViVA XL that aid in extracting information from simulated data
• Use graph and trace attributes to customize and personalize the waveform display
• Customize subwindows in multiple ways
• Use markers and cursors to precisely measure time points and signal values
• Create and save Plotting Templates
• Use the Results Browser to select signal values in multiple result directories
• Create tables to display multiple results or signals that vary with simulation parameters
• Use the calculator in ViVA XL to create expressions and use available functions to evaluate the required information from the simulation results
• Use the built-in functions available in the Direct Plot form
