Problem of verilog-ams in Spectre
Apr 04^th, 2007, 8:29pm

Hi everyone,

I have used the op-amp verilog-ams model on this website, and trying to use Spectre in ADE to simulate it. I have use the hierachy editor to select the verilogams view for this op-amp block.

However, when I tried to simulate it in the Spectre simulator, I got the following error:

Netlist Error: Unknown cell type for instance 'I8' in lib 'low_voltage' cell 'ideal_op' view 'verilogams'.

I8 is the block for the verilog-ams program. Low_voltage is my library's name.

I am very puzzled and I don't know what to do with it. Someone even suggests to me that perhaps Spectre ADE does not supprt the view type verilogams.

Please help. Thank you so much.
David.
