How do i run corners using scripts? need explanation

corner sim using scripts

hello,
usually i use the corner function in the ADE. using ADE i'm not able to show the data for the corners i run. i have to do visual check and that is very pain staking.
I heard that i can run corner using scripts. by using scripts, im able to display the results in table.
How do i run corners using scripts?

Re: corner sim using scripts

I often use ocean scripts to do corner analysis.
Just example:

;icc1_proc is called by every corner case
procedure(icc1_proc(mmodel ttemp)

                   fprintf(p "temperature is %s" ttemp)
                   newline(p)
                   fprintf(p "models is %s running" mmodel)
                   newline(p)
                   
                   temp(ttemp )
                   modelFile( list("/home/user/models/models.scs" mmodel) ) 
                  ;build separate directory for each simulation
                   resultsDir((buildString list("/home/user/simulation/SIM_1/spectre/" ttemp "/" mmodel) ""))
                   run() 
                  ;measure current consumption
                   Icc = clip(IT("/R1/PLUS") 0.0025 0.0045)
                   if( Icc then
                           Icc1 = average(Icc)
                           fprintf(p "Icc1= %10.3e"  Icc1)
                           newline(p)
                           fprintf(p "Icc1 %s is ready" mmodel)
                           newline(p)
                          else
                           fprintf("Problem with simulation")
                           newline(p)
                           )
                   fprintf(p "--------------------------------")
                   newline(p)
                  )

;main procedure

;prepare to simulation
ocnWaveformTool( 'wavescan )
simulator( 'spectre )
design("/home/user/simulation/SIM_1/spectre/schematic/netlist/netlist")

analysis('tran ?stop "5m" ?errpreset "liberal" )

temp( 27.0 )
;different models
models = '("type" "fast" "slow" )
;different temperatures
temps = '("27" "-30" "150")

; save necessary points 
save('i "R1" 'v "DRIVER")

;open log file
p = outfile( "./simres/Icc1.res" "a" )

;!!!!!!!!!!!!main loop
;make sweep through all models and all temperatures
;and call icc1_proc procedure for every combination
foreach(y temps foreach(x models  icc1_proc(x y)))
;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fprintf(p "Icc1 simulation is finished")
newline(p)
close( p )

Finally i got analysis data in Icc1.res file and can check any simulation by Results Browser
(for instance typical simulation data saved in /home/user/simulation/SIM_1/spectre/27_type directory)
