Title: hspicerf simulation
Post by zhengzheng08 on Apr 13^th, 2009, 1:18am

when i do a hspicerf simulation ,it reports errors as follows:
"~~resistor.lib incompleted input for .param statement"
whether it means that the lib losts something for rf simulation?
because when i use the same lib do hspice simulation for the same
design ,it runs without errors. who can tell me what's wrong with
my simulation ,thankyou very much~~~~ :-[

In the resistor.lib file, look for any .param statements that have continued lines using the double backslash characters (\\). If the .param statment has the parameter name separated from the first portion of the parameter definition, then this is the problem. For example:

.param long_exp = \\
'((a+b)/(c*d) + \\
(v(out)*scale)'

The work around is to write the .param statment as:

.param long_exp = '((a+b)/(c*d) + \\
(v(out)*scale)'

This is a know problem and is fixed in the C-2009.03 version of HSPICE RF.
