Strange behavior on unity prefixes.

Hello. I am facing really strange issues with Cadence Virtuoso 6.1.4. Sometimes, when I put units like atto, femto, pico, nano, etc, in parameters, the software translates it to e118, e115, e112, etc. It should be e-18, e-15, e-12, and not the 118, 115, 112!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It happens with more than one design kit, so I'm sure it is an issue with the software, and not the DK. When netlisting for spectre simulation, the netlister put these unreasonable values to the simulator. Did some of you face this problem before???

     Hi,

    which OS are you running the software on? You might want to check with:

    prompt> <IC614_Install_dir>/tools/bin/checkSysConf  IC6.1.4

     I think I saw things like that happen with non-Red Hat installations.

    Kind regards,

    Marc

     PS:Your keys with the exlcamation and question mark seem to be broken.
