Hi
I am developing Verilog A model for an emerging device. That VerilogA model will be instantiated within an .scs file to run spectre simulations. I have a couple of questions regarding that:
1) As far as I know, spice-like simulators (LTspice, spectre, eldo..etc) have some hard coded models for some elements. Numerical solutions for circuits with such elements are well documented and the methods are known. But, when I use a verilogA model to describe a device, does spectre translate it first to a network of such elements and then solves (something like synthesis in digital) or it operates on the verilogA equations right away?
2)do the algorithms that apply to spice models (eg. NR) also apply to verilogA models?
Thanks
