Title: How to turn off model related warning in hspice simulator?
Post by neoflash on Apr 21^st, 2009, 3:06pm

For example, some models are not used and there is going to be many warnings, which make the real important info hard to find.

**warning** (/tt_lk.l:10414) model nch_lvt.1 is not used in netlist

I think you can try to turn off that model in the model card directly.

Check your .option statement; I wonder if you're somehow requesting those warnings, I don't think I usually get them.

Also consider NOMOD or BRIEF

By default, HSPICE only loads the models that are actually used by the circuit. This has been the default behavior since the A-2008.03 release. Doing this saves memory and run time since every model and model bin is not loaded and evaluated during the read in phase.

Using .option brief=1 and brief=0 around any .lib statements will prevent HSPICE from reporting which models are not used.
