missing terminals in extracted netlist

PirateKing2008

Hi

I get the following error when netlisting a calibre extracted view;

ERROR (OSSHNL-913): Netlisting failed because terminal 'casc' of instance 'Mirror' in cellview 't55atpnonprd/mirrorMvsFinger_tb/schematic'
does not exist in switch master 't55atpnonprd/mirrorMvsFinger/calibre_Ronly'. To continue netlisting, either set
the 'simCheckTermMismatchAction' to 'ignore', or set the
'simCheckTermMismatchAction' to 'warning' and 'nlAction' to 'ignore' for the
missing terminal.

This error repeats for all the pins.

So it won't netlist. But if I use the simCheckTermMismatchAction="ignore"  trick then it netlists but when you display the netlist the subckt will have no terminals against it!  This is probably why when I try to update pin order of symbol to match extracted view it wants to remove all the pins on the symbol! What's has happened to my terminal in the extracted view?

  • Hi Lance,

    This is a Cadence forum but the question really seems to be about the extracted view that Calibre (Mentor's tool) produces. Have you looked at the extracted view?  I guess that the terminals are really missing there, and hence they will not exist in any netlist produced from it.  You will most likely need to investigate the step that produces the extracted cellview, probably with folks who are familiar with Calibre (probably not on a Cadence forum).

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
