Title: UNABLE TO OPEN FILE: nch3.m
Post by qiushidaren on Mar 21^st, 2010, 11:14pm

Hi All,

I met quite a weird issue, when I used IC5141 to generate HspiceS netlist, it showed that:
UNABLE TO OPEN FILE: nch3.m
UNABLE TO OPEN FILE: nil.m
PARAMETER HAS NOT BEEN SET: nil

I checked the HspiceS netlist file, I found that all of the subckts parameters were set to nil, such as W=nil, L=nil, model name. What I have done is only adding Mn and Mp parameters of Inv to CDF Base, after that, I can’t get a final netlist anymore, can any body help me to solve this issue, thank you in advance. :'(

Is there a good reason why you are trying to use hspiceS (which is obsolete and end-of-lifed - in fact it's no longer present in releases after IC5141) rather than the newer and cleaner "hspiceD" interface?

It's very hard to know what is wrong without knowing the details of what you've done. Can you report it via your support channel into Cadence (if you're at a University, that may be via your university program).

Andrew.
