ADExl problem with bus notation

sram8t
sram8t over 11 years ago

Running a spectre simulation from adexl I am getting this error:

Error found by spectre during circuit read-in.
    ERROR (SFE-874): "input.scs" 3633: Unexpected operator ">". Expected end of
        file or end of line.

The interesting part of scs netlist is listed below. Please note that the \ escape was applied to the netlist but not to the output signals. I don't know why.

I tried the \ escape on the "Outputs Setup" pane but then I could not check the save box. Thus, I assume I cannot enter the signals with the \ escape in the outputs setup pane. How can I getaround that problem?

    Andrew,

    I have ICADV12.1-64b.500.6

    envGetVal("asimenv" "mappingMode") -> "nmp"

    Thanks,

    Joachim
