How to simulate starRC generated .SPF files through ADE

Hi,

 How to simulate starRC generated .SPF files through ADE?

I am unable to use the .SPF files through "config" view unlike the calibre extracted views.

With the calibre extracted views, i can directly change the "view to use" in config setup to calibre extracted view and simulate directly in ADE.

As the starRC .SPF file is like text file, i am unable to use though "config".

As a result, i am manually editing the netlist file by including the .SPF file and running through command line instead of ADE.

please help me on this...

Regards

Deepak

    Deepak,

    A couple of ways - one is to follow the method covered in Tawna's Blog. The other approach is to do the part in the blog related to getting the termOrder correct in the CDF, and then use the View to use->SPICE file in the hierarchy editor (I think this only works in IC61X).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
