Output definition
Select Outputs To be Plotted Select on Schematic Select vin and vout nodes and press ESC.
Plot
Click the Run button. Select Tools Calculator in the waveform window. Check wave radio button and select the vin node first and then select the vout node from the schematic. In the calculator window, select Delay function from the Special function subwindow. Mirror the following parameters as shown below.

Output definition
In ADE window, select Outputs -> setup tPHL definition Define tPHL for Name (opt) label. Click Open to open the calculator, select vt radio button and go to test schematic.
Figure 3-3: Transient Voltage Select first vout node and then vin node. Return back to the calculator, and select delay function under special function. Mirror the setting as shown in Figure 3-4. Click Apply. Note: Dont click on OK, because we need it to define tPLH variable.
Figure 3-4: settings for tPHL calculation Switch back to setting outputs window by pressing Alt+Tab key and click on Get Expression, the expression from the calculator buffer gets copied on to the Expression. Click Add. tPLH definition In the same setting outputs window, click New Expression and define tPLH in the Name (opt) label. Switch back to calculator window and change Edge Type 1 as Falling and Edge Type 2 as rising in the delay function. Click OK. Again navigate to setting outputs window and click on Get Expression.

Click Add.
tD definition In the same setting outputs window, click New Expression and define tD in the Name (opt) lable. Switch back to calculator window and click on + button in the key pad sub-window. This will add the current tPLH expression, which is in the buffer, to the first stack expression, tPHL.
Now to divide the sum of (tPLH + tPHL) expression, click on pushes the current buffer expression on to the stack.
Now enter 2 in the buffer and click on / divide button in the key pad sub-window. Return back to the output settings window and click on Get Expression button. Click Add and OK.
