Ordered connection in AMS netlist

Finn

I am simulating a very simple circuit using AMS designer. The circuit has a subcircuit AAA which is generated by ADS. I first created schematic view for AAA, where there are only pins without any connections. I then generated symbol view for it and saved it as spectre view also. In AMS designer, I added the path to the subcircuit netlist to analog model. It's fine when I run design prep. But when I run simulation, it reports an error saying:

ncelab: *E,SPPBYN (****/verilog.vams,17|68): Named port connections for analog primitives are not supported.

I checked the AMS netlist. AAA is indeed netlisted using named connection. Can anyone tell me how to tell AMS to netlist this block using ordered connection? Or is it caused by any other possible things?

  • Hi,

    Having “spectre” in view list in HED should not create any problem here. As long as the “View to Use” is pointing to the spice netlist path for the spice instance elaborator should pass.

    AMS netlister does read CDF. What problem are you facing here?
