Title: AMS cannot netlist cells
Post by Pavel on Dec 5^th, 2006, 9:28am

Hello

Doing Design Preparation procedure (Hierarchy Editor->AMS->Design Prep...) I receive in Messages window of Hierarchy Editor about 10 messages like this:

Netlisting LIB_ANLG cell12 schematic.
AMS Netlister is unable to netlist LIB_ANLG cell12 schematic.
Search for 'Error' in the AMS->Logfile Viewer->Netlister Log File for details.
Netlisting failed for cellview LIB_ANLG.cell12:schematic

Netlist isn't created, so I cannot run simuation.
Following suggestion I checked Netlister Log File. There is absolutely NOTHING that explains the problem.

The cells that are not netlisted (7 cells) represent minor quantity from whole number of cells, that are netlisted. I tried to find the diffrences between "BAD" and "GOOD" cells. No major differencies - just other cells.

How can I bypass the problem if tool diagnostic is zero?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Pavel.

It seems to me schematic cells did not get "check and saved " .
Try this
In top level configured schematic window, Check -> Hierarchy .. turn on all schematic and turn on check .
After hierarchy check done . Do design Prep again .
