Hi,
I am trying to get ID-TOX (gate oxide thickness) plot with VD=VG=3V for various TOX.
In Cadence Analog Environment > Analyses > Choose > dc analysis / Model Parameter in Sweep Variable, I typed tsmc25N for Model Name field and TOX for Parameter Name field.
tsmc25N is the model name in properties window of the tr and TOX is gate oxide thickness in tsmc25 model parameter.
When I run the simulation, it gives error.
[ Error found by spectre during hierarchy flatterning
dc: Invalid model name was "tsmc25N" given as value of parameter 'mod'.
name conflict: value 'tsmc25N' of type 'scalar string' encountered.
Expected value is of type 'scalar model'.
spectre terminated prematurely due to fatal error ]
Below is front part of the model parameter. the file name is model25.spi.

I searched for cadence references but it is just like MS help.
