Are there any semiconductor vendor-supplied models in IC stream?

achilles

I am thinking these files contain standard models; how do we know the names of the models included? and how do we use them? 

cmi.pic.o  libphilips_sh.so  libinfineon_sh.so  libstmodels_sh.so  libsparam_sh.so  defaultConfig

 Thanks,

    Andrew,

    Thanks for the clarification.  I am just curious why there is no published interface for these libraries; these files are all binary.  Perhaps, they are in the install tree but I have not found them or Cadence will provide them if we ask.

    Why is there none true 3-terminal MOS symbols in analogLib?  I see nmos and nmos4, but the former is programmable bulk node.  The models we downloaded from discrete IC vendors all have three terminals.  We ended up copying nmos component and change CDF info to netlist out only three terminals.  If you have cleaner solution, please share.

    Regards,

    Achilles
