Import CDL, CDF paramter is not updated

Hi,

I did a CDLin with the following cdl netlist and device mapping, it is completed normally and no error reported. However, when I l checked the imported schematics, I found that the parameter "total_width" is not updated properly and still keep at the default value from the library, I supposed it will be updated by the imported value "W" automatically. Is there any possible solution? Thanks!

You will need to call the CDF callbacks for the devices. There are various copies of code to do this out there, including in this solution. Alternatively search for abInvokeCdfCallbacks or CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks.

Support has been added in the upcoming IC6.1.7 (via CCR 754760) to automatically trigger the callbacks as part of SPICE IN - I've not tested this myself yet though. IC6.1.7 is due for release later this month.

Regards,

Andrew.
