Measurement of current in rcx extracted simulation

ankurprg

Hi ,

 what is the best way to measure current flowing at a node of a transistor in the rcx extracted view .

do i need to create a probe point in layout ? 

 

Best Regards,

  • Hi Quek,

     I am using the IC615.500.132 which i guess is the latest version.

    just to explain it again , I am already using the "out of context" probing for voltage measurement but somehow it does not work for current measurement but on schematic level it works (is there some other setting which i have to turn on ?) ..my extracted view is called "extracted_rc_typical" in the hierarchy editor.

    Second point : i tried to backannotate the parasitics (resistive too) by providing the DC simuation path but the backannotation of parasitics resistor also does not work ..i tried the setup as given in the documentation ( i can successfully backannotate the parasitic cap.)

    Best Regards,
