[comp.lsi] The `Common Simulation Data Format

whitaker@cs.man.ac.uk (Nigel Whitaker) (07/23/90)

Hello folks,

Does anybody know anything about the ``Common Simulation Data Format''?

I've been reading my MicroSim PSpice manual, where it mentions that
PSpice can produce a text file of the simulation results in this format.
It also says it is a totally generic format, which has been proposed
as a standard for simulation results.

Does anybody know anything about this format, who uses it, what its used for??
If it's a standard has anybody published a (public) definition?
I've had a look at one of these files and found it quite hard
to interpret the format.

I'd appreciate any responses with any info on the format, or knowledge
of any products which use it.  If there is any interest/replies I will send
a summary to the net.

Thanks,
    Nigel
