deepprobe with AMS

 Is there any way to get the solution 11017972 - accessing a lower level net from the top-level - to work with AMS?

    Hi Uzzy,

    I've checked. You don't need to (and shouldn't) put the top cell name in (that might have been needed with cell-based - I can't remember). Anyway, if I put the top cell name as part of the hierarchical path, the name gets escaped by the UNL netlist assembly process. If I just use I1.I2.vsense_lpf_adc_int then it works fine (in my example I'm using I1.I0.b). If the hierarchical path doesn't exist however, it seems to get escaped - so it's important that you get the hierarchical path correct. 

    If this isn't working for some reason (I don't see why - I'm using the example "testit" circuit that's in the tarball associated with the deepprobe article on support.cadence.com), please contact customer support - it must be something to do with the data you're using (maybe)?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
