How to turn off model related warning in hspice simulator?
Apr 21st, 2009, 3:06pm
 
For example, some models are not used and there is going to be many warnings, which make the real important info hard to find.  

 **warning** (/tt_lk.l:10414)   model nch_lvt.1 is not used in netlist

I think you can try to turn off that model in the model card directly.

Check your .option statement; I wonder if you're somehow requesting those warnings, I don't think I usually get them.

Also consider NOMOD or BRIEF

If at first you do succeed, STOP, raise your standards, and stop wasting your time.

By default, HSPICE only loads the models that are actually used by the circuit.  This has been the default behavior since the A-2008.03 release.  Doing this saves memory and run time since every model and model bin is not loaded and evaluated during the read in phase.  

Using .option brief=1 and brief=0 around any .lib statements will prevent HSPICE from reporting which models are not used.
