How use netlist and spectre_encrypt

yxHou

I am a new one for cadence, I would like to figure out the Usage process of a spectre_encrypt netlist.

  • How to import the encrypted netlist into a Library schematic
    • I can import the netlist without encrypt, but once I try to import encrypted netlist, cadence will through out some errors
    • I wonder I use this in a wrong way, but I can't find any reference to solve it.
  • How to use the encrypted netlist and other model to draw a new schematic

Can any body help me, thx.

    Trying to create a schematic from an encrypted netlist really doesn't make sense - it would rather defeat the point if it being encrypted if it was possible!

    Most likely it would make sense to create a symbol with the pins for the block that is encrypted (hopefully the interface to the subckt is not encrypted so you can see the pin names etc), copy that to a spectre view, and then in Tools->CDF->Edit in the CIW, edit the Base CDF for the block in question and specify the termOrder in the Spectre simulation information section to match the order in the encrypted netlist. Then in ADE you can include the encrypted netlist via Setup->Model Libraries for example.

    If this isn't clear (there's a blog on this by our friend  How to Simulate a Subcircuit (Netlist) With Spectre in ADE - RF Design - Cadence Blogs - Cadence Community ), please contact customer support.
