How to save PAC simulation results?

[bisonlj]

I'm running PSS, PAC-Rapid IP2 analysis on a frontend circuity. I can plot result through Direct Plot->Main Form -> PAC -> Rapid IP2, and I can read result directly from the plot. However, If I want to save this result, especially for a Monte Carlo simulation, how to do it? Thanks!

So attachment. How to save data on this plot without typing one-by-one in Excel?

You didn't reveal which tool you're using, but I guess it's Cādence ADE with SPECTRE. The data you're displaying in the waveform window are available in your simulation directory, somewhere like .../spectre/schematic/psf/ . If the data are in raw binary format, you could repeat the simulation with the spectre call

spectre -format psfascii your_output_file_name

or - as an option statement in one of the netlist files

Settings options rawfmt=psfascii

For more information about the options statement, see the parameter listings in the Spectre online help (spectre -h).
