Hi,
I want to do a corner analysis along with several other variable
parameters for my design.
At present the line specifying the model file looks like this...

Code: 
modelFile(
   '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models/Spectre/
L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" "ss")
)

All I need to change is the last argument as "ff" or "tt". So I want
to give these strings as parameters from an array and run the
simulation.
Does anybody have an idea how can I do so?
Waiting for some solution,
-Pratap

modelFile( '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models/Spectre/
L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" "ss")
)
Click to expand...

you could use:
Code: 
corners=( "ss" "tt" "ff" )
foreach( corner corners
  modelFile( '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models/Spectre/
  L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" sprintf( nil "%s" corner ) ) 
)
If this does not work:
Code: 
if(corner=="ss"
  modelFile( '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models/Spectre/
  L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" "ss")
  if(corner=="tt"
    modelFile( '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models
    /Spectre/L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" "tt")
    if(corner=="ff"
      modelFile( '("/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models
      /Spectre/L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" "tt")
    )
  )
)

I hope it helps!

Re: Passing model file as a string parameter in cadence ocea

Thanks JoannesPaulus,
The if type logic worked with a bit of correction...
(There was a single quote missing in the array declaration...)
But for passing string parameter a special syntax like "list" was required.

This is the way the final code looks like.
Code: 
corners='( "ss" "tt" "ff" "snfp" "fnsp" )
foreach(corner corners
  modelFile(
   list( "/home/pratap/cadence/foundry_data/umc13mmrf/../Models/Spectre/L130E_HS12_V241.lib.scs" sprintf( nil "%s" corner))
          )
.
