Incorrect netlist of a circuit containing multibit instances from the analogLib (IC6.1.8)

Siliconsmith

It happens that simulations cannot start because of errors found by spectre in 'multibit_pcell' during hierarchy flattening. The typical error message reads: ERROR (SFE-1997): "input.scs" line#: IABC.V0: parameter `dc': Cannot run the simulation because parameter 'a0' has been used but no value has been assigned to it.

I have discovered this issue can be solved in a test editor respectively in an ADE-L session, by manually launching "Recreate Netlist". But then, how can netlist recreating automatically be forced before any test simulation in ADE-XL?

    You need to contact customer support. I think you tried to do that via email (from a search I did with an identical error line), but the auto-reply tells you to log the case through support.cadence.com - please do that. We need to understand why the netlist is incorrect in the first place.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
