RelXpert simulation error

rohit halba
rohit halba over 10 years ago

I am trying to use RelXpert (in Cadence 6.1.6) for performing reliability simulation in the Virtuoso ADE.

I followed the procedure given in Cadence document for RelXpert integration.

But I am facing some error mention below.

"Error (RELXP-375): The RelXpert simulator is unable to find 'RelXpert parameters in all model cards' to perform the calculation. Check if 'RelXpert paramters for some model cards' exists in 'input.scs' or 'correct syntax for reliability model or analysis is used in the netlist' before running the simulation again. Refer to RelXpert user guide for correct syntax.

Failed to run RelXpert netlist preprocessing."

I will be highly obliged if anyone can help us for the same

    The error message is pretty clear - it's telling you that you don't have the RelXpert parameters in your models. Typically you need special models from the foundry with the additional information to describe how they age - and this information is not normally in the standard models.

    So you will need to contact the foundry you are using to obtain the aging models, and then use those instead.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
