Spectre error when simulating with extracted view

Pyroblast

Hi,

As the topic says, when I do a simulation with the extracted view I get this error:


ERROR (SFE-400): multiple case sensitive symbols have been created which match the case insensitive symbol `C2'.

Does anyone know what this means? How can I solve this?

This C2 is a MOM CAP ASY MM.

From what I can understand there might be an issue with this cap, but don't know what and why. Doesn't make any sense.


Regards.

  • Thank you for the reply Andrew. I don't have any problem in sharing the netlist. How would you prefer? Through the forum, or I can send you the netlist on a private message? I think that posting it here would be a bit bad because the netlist is huge.

    Allow me to warning you that I can't go to the customer support because to make the registration I must have  the Cadence License Server Host ID and because I am using Cadence at the university I can't provide that - I don't have access to the ID, as you might understand.

    Regards.

    EDIT: I forgt to tell you that I took a look at the netlist and there is in fact a 'c2', with this description: c2 (\1939\:gnd_bg \857\:net52) capacitor c2.169e-17.

    Another thing is that, even with that error, the simulation keeps running and finishes without problem (not counting with that error).

    I don't know if this can tell you something.

    I tried to change the capacitor instance name in the schematic but the error persists. Don't know what to do.
