Stim File Archive ((new)) Now

Each .stim file contains three top-level sections:

Working with Stim File Archives requires a basic understanding of digital circuit design, simulation, and the relevant EDA tools and software. Here are some steps to get started:

Because simulation and telemetry data can scale into terabytes, archiving architectures employ multi-tiered storage. stim file archive

The use of Stim File Archives offers several benefits, including:

The archive is organized as follows:

Complementing the .stim file is the .info file, which contains high-level metadata about a stimulation session. This ASCII file includes critical information such as:

Several EDA tools and simulation software support Stim File Archives, including: This ASCII file includes critical information such as:

Configuration settings for specific hardware ports or print streams.

Beyond medical devices, the term "stimfile" appears in psychological and cognitive neuroscience research software, particularly within the mgl (Matlab Graphics Library) ecosystem developed at Stanford University. In this context, after running an experiment, all variables—including the screen configuration, task parameters, and stimulus variables—are saved into a yymmdd_stimnn.mat file, where yymmdd is the current date and nn is a sequential number.
