time step in spectre sim using verilogA models
Nov 04th, 2005, 4:05pm
 
Hi All,
 I am using verilogA model of pipeline with circuit model of digital calibration to test the calibration algorithm. When I run spectre I find that the spectre uses 1p r so as timestep., which results in long simulation time. Is there away to specify timestep?

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Partha

You can use the maxstep parameter to make the timestep smaller, but you cannot make it larger other than by loosening tolerances, which may not help in this case. You should first try to determine why the timestep is small.
