Hello everyone,

I have a question on how the event triggered PWL
sources should be implemented.  Please comment ASAP,
since I am in the middle of doing them now and I
need your answers right away.

The goal is to have a something vs. time table in the
PWL source which can be reset to t=0 any time an
input signal crosses a certain threshold.  So far
so good.

Question:  What should be the behavior be before
the first event occurs?  For example, if the PWL
source contains a table that is a waveform defined
for 0 to 2 ns, and the first event occurs at t=5ns,
should the output be the first point of the table
up to 5ns, and then start the waveform, or should
the waveform begin at t=0 run its course once, and
then start over at 5ns and at every subsequent event?

Our library does the second one currently, but I
think the first description is the better (or more
correct) one.

Please comment.

Thanks,

Arpad
