    Sorry Andrew, I tried as you suggested but its not working. It replaces original parameters with default parameters. Please let me know about this.

    My conv.config is
      (
      (nil
    fromLib     "tsmcN65"
        fromCell    "nch"
      toLib   "ts018_prim"
       toCell  "nmos_18"
           runCallbacks t
       params (
           ("w" "width" MyFixDigital )
           ("l" "length" MyFixDigital )
           )
       addProps (

             )
       )
    (nil
       fromLib     "tsmcN65"
       fromCell    "pch"
       toLib   "ts018_prim"
       toCell  "pmos_18"
       runCallbacks t
       params (
           ("w" "width" MyFixDigital)
           ("l" "length" MyFixDigital)
           )
       addProps (

             )
       )
    )
    I have used the below code for digital library schematics

     procedure(MyFixDigital(inst parName val)
      case(parName
        ("w" aelSuffixNotation(cdfParseFloatString(val)*2.0/3.0))
        ("l" "40n")
      )
    )

    Result: All pmos and nmos devices are converted from tsmcN65 to ts018_prim. But width and length values are default values (minimum values).


    Thanks in advance,
