how to fix "No DC path from node `gnd!' to ground"

asd1815

Hi, I am using Cadence (R) Virtuoso (R) Spectre (R) Circuit Simulator
Version 7.1.1.071 -- 20 May 2009

I am running a simulation in ADE GLX. Each time I run a simulation I get these grounding problems.

"No DC path from node `gnd!' to ground"

I tried to use globalGroundNet in .simrc but that doesn't help because I need to assign "0" and "gnd!" as grounds. I am using a free PDK NCSU 1.6 and I don't want to miss with the netlister.

If I use ADE L I can simply edit the netlist file and fix the global statement by adding 0 gnd! vdd! but if I use GLX each time I run a simulation a new netlist is created.

 Any suggestions?

Thanks!
