Switching technology for spectre netlist (Finfet to planar CMOS)

Antouan

Hello,

I have been successfully working on a finfet netlist, downloading the modelfiles and other important files from predictive model technology. Specifically, after downloading the PTM package for finfets  I was able to simulate the netlist. However, for some time now I have been trying to change the modelfile and switch to planar mosfet technology.  It seems that downloading the PTM modelfiles (for CMOS 45nm for instance) and simply changing the ".lib" line is not sufficient. Can anyone help me with this ? The goal is to manage to switch technology on a netlist (and go from finfet to cmos.
The netlist is rather simple and the commands for the finfet modelfiles (14nm from PTM) were:
simulator lang =spice
.lib 'PTM_14/PTM-MG/models' ptm14hp
simulator lang =spectre

  • Your question doesn't contain enough information for anyone to realistically be able to help. That's why the forum guidelines ask you to supply a variety of pieces of information - here there's no clue as to what you've actually done or what did or didn't work.

    So that's a contributory factor in why this has gone unanswered...

    Regards,
