The EDAData.jl module provides a Julia interface for loading data files used by Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools. The module interface performs data operations with the help of the high-level Data* structures declared in MDDatasets.jl.
At the moment, EDAData.jl supports the following data formats:
- .tr0 (SPICE format): Read only
- .psf (Parameter Storage Format): Read only
- .sNp (Touchstone, .s2p, .s3p, ...): Read/Write
The EDAData.jl module provides wrappers to access file contents as DataMD datasets. For more information on the readers, please visit their respective github pages:
- SpiceData.jl (.tr0): https://github.com/ma-laforge/SpiceData.jl
- LibPSFC.jl (.psf): (Optional: 3rd party wrapper) https://github.com/ma-laforge/LibPSFC.jl
- LibPSF.jl (.psf): (Pure-Julia implementation) https://github.com/ma-laforge/LibPSF.jl
- TODO: PSFWrite.jl (.psf): https://github.com/ma-laforge/PSFWrite.jl

Reading .tr0 files
r = EDAData.open_tr0("myfile.tr0") signaldata = read(r, "signalname") close(r) -
Reading .psf files
r = EDAData.open_psf("myfile.psf") signaldata = read(r, "signalname") close(r) -
Reading .sNp files
r = EDAData.read_snp("myfile.s2p", numports=2) -
Writing .sNp files
r = EDAData.write_snp(:sNp, "outputfile.s2p")
Further examples on how to use the EDAData.jl capabilities can be found under the sample directory.
By default, EDAData reads .psf files using the pure-Julia libpsf implementation "LibPSF.jl". To opt for a C++ implementation, it is possible to select the LibPSFC.jl library by modifying defaultPSFReader found in src/LibPSF.jl:
defaultPSFReader = :LibPSFC
