Error: Failed to elaborate("Library Name" "Cell Name" "config")

Hi,

  I am using IC6.1.6 and trying to simulate extracted view using Hierarchy Editor. I am getting two errors.

   1.  Failed to load dynamic library libadsptolemy_vpi

   2.  Failed to elaborate ("Library Name" "Cell_name" "config")

Can you please tell me the possible reasons for this problem? I also have veriloga switch in the config view.

    It's not obvious to me why it's not working if you providing the model files and the models contain models for the units it is complaining about. It's really hard to diagnose just by a screenshot of some of the error, so contacting support would be a better approach.

    However, given that you're using software that is between 9-10 years old (that's what I was pointing out as being a problem), our opportunities for support are quite limited. Why not use IC6.1.8? Then you can use the newer Unified Netlisting AMS flow which is a lot simpler in terms of PDK support.
