Noise simulation in Cadence

EthanRFIC

 Hi,

 I'm learning Noise Simulation in Cadence.  The circuit is just a simple common source amplifier with a noise-less resistor as the load. What I want to do is to observe the noise situation for the nmos transistor.

 

However, when I do the simulation, spectre is always terminated due to a fatal error showing: 

"ERROR(SFE-51): name conflict: value 'M0' of type 'scalar subcircuit instance' encountered. Expected value is of type 'scalar instance'.

 ---I've checked out the manual reference, but I still have no idea what the error is there.

 

So if anyone can help me out? Thank you so much!

 

The simulation setup is :

 Analysis: noise

Sweep Range: start=1, stop=100G.

Output noise: probe, output probe instance: /M0

Input Noise: None

 I'm using Cadence version of IC6.1.5-64bit
