Andrew, Do you have a probe statement also? Like this... .OPTIONS PROBE .PROBE Vdesired_node = v(node_name) If you're using v2001.4.x I would suggest trying an older one...but then again even the 1999 versions don't have all their bugs worked out either. :-) George -----Original Message----- From: Ingraham, Andrew [mailto:Andrew.Ingraham@xxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 2:17 PM To: si-list Subject: [SI-LIST] Limiting number of nodes in HSPICE .probe output files I feel kind of silly asking this if it was asked and answered already. It seems familiar but I don't remember an answer. I have a .PROBE statement in my HSPICE simulation, and I want the darn program to list the data for ONLY those nodes that I put in the .PROBE statement. As I do in all my simulations, I have ".OPTION PROBE", which works to limit the nodes to those requested when doing a transient analysis. However, I am doing a DC sweep this time. I want it to list only three (3) node voltages. Instead, it shows me 502 node voltages! Furthermore, the vast majority of those 502 nodes, are duplicates! Did I screw up, or is this just another example of how HSPICE is screwed up? (Or wait, is this another of those "It's not a bug, that's the way it's supposed to work" ?)
