ADE L | post-layout simulation | input.scs error | missing model

 Hi,

after successful RLC extraction I got a av_extracted view, which I set in ADE Setup->Environment... in the Switch View List in order to perform post-layout simulation. The netlist is created without any error. However, when I start to run a transient simulation I get te following error:



<< ERROR (SFE-23): "input.scs" 48743: ra4289 is an instance of an undefined model met4.>>

 There is a series of errors actually, with different model names (met4, met1, poly1) and number coming after "input.scs" in the above quoted error line.

I thought, the PDK (AMS C35 0.35um process) should provide such models, but I cannot find any in the Hit Kit directory.

 Thanks for help in advance,

Kind Regards,

 

pitter.

    Hi Pitter

    Perhaps this can help to solve the problem:
    a. In the QRC form, go to "Netlisting" tab
    b. For "Parasitic Resistor Models", use "Include as comment" instead of "Include Model"

    Re-generate the extracted view and retry spectre simulation. : )

    Best regards
