Generating S-parameters 8-port Sch from netlist

archive
archive over 15 years ago

Dear All,

 

I have a netlist (.cir format) of an 8-port S-parameter model and I need to generate a schematic view in order to be able to simulate it using Spectre.

 I had a go using the import tool as following :

CIW->Import->spice In

 

but there is a problem with the components mapping I guess, the reference library I am using is the AnalogLib, Do I need a mapping file?

Please see below the first few lined of the netlist, I hope it helps:

    Hi Nik

    You need a device map. Please use mappings similar to the pic shown below.
