DVM: Basic DVM Control Symbol

DVM - Design Verification Module

Basic DVM Control Symbol

The Basic DVM Control symbol holds the minimum amount of information that is required to run DVM. Before you add a DVM

To add a basic DVM symbol to a working schematic, follow these steps:

From the parts selector, choose DVM ▶ Control Symbols ▶ Basic DVM Control Symbol.
Result: The SIMPLIS DVM symbol appears.
Place the symbol at the top of the schematic.

Double click the symbol.
Result: The dialog shown below opens for you to change the general information, which is described in the table below.

Label	Parameter Description
Circuit Specifications: General information about the circuit
Circuit Name	Name of the circuit as it will appear in the DVM report; for display purposes only.
Circuit Description	Description of the circuit under test which appears in the DVM Control symbol; for display purposes only.
Report Customization: Options to customize the appearance of the DVM report
Custom Style Sheet	Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) file to use with the DVM report
Custom Logo Image	Portable Network Graphics (PNG) file to use with the DVM report
Pre & Post Processing: Options to control the default pre- and post-processing options for circuit
Pre-process Script	SIMetrix script to be executed immediately before launching each simulation; this allows you to adjust a schematic before running the test.
Post-process Script	SIMetrix script to be executed immediately after each simulation successfully completes; this allows you full access to perform waveform manipulation and create custom scalar and spec values.
