Using threads (cores) greater than 64 in APS

 Dear All,

Is it possible to use more than 64 threads in APS ?

 ( When I run a big PEXed circuit with 64 Cores ( manullay setting) SPECTRE gives warning as:-

  WARNING (SPECTRE-407): Total number of threads (I251.N_TIA_Q_IN_PLUS_XI1/XI0/XI18/MC4_g)  exceeds 64 in disributed APS )

Why this warning is cropping up ?

    

Kind Regards,

    Hi RF Stuff,

    APS for now supports upto 64 cores. However, which MMSIM version are you using? You can find this either from the log file or using -

    spectre -W

    from the unix command line.

    The support for 64 cores has been started from MMSIM11.1.
