    Hi kivvzhou

    Actually it would not really be possible to tell what went wrong because the error message which you have posted is quite generic. It simply states that pss cannot complete due to some errors. Such errors can be due to convergence problems during the simulation, bugs that lead to crashes, design issues, etc. There can be many causes for it. It would be good if you can retry using the latest MMSIM72 to see if the same problem occurs or provide more info on the error (e.g. upload the spectre log file).

    Best regards
