    10 Helpful Hints For ADS - 07 - 11

    Using short variable names makes it easier to change datasets when displaying data. Short names allow simply changing the dataset in the default window rather than rewriting long equations. Long names are only needed when displaying multiple simulations simultaneously. The document also discusses new data display capabilities in the HP Advanced Design System compared to previous versions, including using marker readouts in equations, viewing matrix data in tables, scrolling through results, and multi-dimensional outputs from swept simulations.

    Enabling Easy Display of Data

    HINT
    Using the shortest possible
    variable names in a data dis-
    play makes it easier to display
    data when you want to change
    5
    datasets. For example, after a
    harmonic balance simulation,
    instead of entering the equa-
    tion:
    Spectrum=dBm(SmampHBtest.HB1.HB1.HB.Vout)
    just enter the equation:
    Spectrum=dBm(Vout)

    This way, to display a spectrum


    using a different dataset, all
    you have to do is change the
    dataset name in the default
    dataset window. Using com-
    plete variable names (as in the
    first equation above) is neces-
    sary when you want to display
    the results of two different
    simulations simultaneously.

    Using New and Improved
    Data Display Capabilities HINT
    Data display has been
    improved over MDS and Series
    IV, although not all capabilities
    in MDS and Series IV are
    9
    available in the first release of
    the HP Advanced Design Sys-
    tem. Some nice features
    include:
    You can use marker
    read-outs in equations.
    For example, filter band-
    width or third-order inter-
    cept point of a mixer can be
    calculated from marker
    readouts.
    You can view matrices of
    data in tabular format,
    two-dimensions at a time.
    To facilitate viewing
    results, you can scroll
    through long lists of data
    and plots.
    Refer to the examples file
    /Tutorial/express_meas_prj
    for many interesting and
    useful ways to manipulate Figure 1. Plots from ConstEVM.dds
    simulation results. in
    /examples/RF_Board/NADC_PA_prj
    When you run a swept sim-
    ulation, such as Circuit
    Envelope, the node volt-
    ages and other variables
    output to the dataset are
    multi-dimensional. Use the
    what function to see the
    independent variables and
    their dimensionality.
