obtain list of nodes from spectre netlist?
Oct 05^th, 2005, 10:10pm

Hello everyone-
I'm trying to do a post-layout parasitic extracion. I want
to extract resistance for gnd and vdd and a couple other
nodes and just extract capacitance for all other nodes.
The problem I'm having is that for this "mixed" extraction
I'm required to list all the nets I want extracted. So I need
a list of all the nodes in my circuit. Anyone know how to get
this? I'm using the cadence analog deisign environment,
by the way.
Thanks,
-Dan

When running from within Artist, Artist directs Spectre to produce a collection of statefiles (something.ic, something.fc, etc.). These statefiles contain a list of all of the nodes and their values. Edit it to eliminate the values. Eliminate any terminals listed in the file by eliminating any line that has a colon in the name.
