on errors caused by using analogLib element delayline

Ruixin

Hi, all

I am using delayline in analogLib to create some ideal delay in my circuit. However, when I run the simulation, it shows

Netlist Error: Could not find netlist procedure:_spectreDelayline instance "I88" in cell-view "Test_delay" "test_1" "schematic"

I am not quite sure how to deal with this problem. Or could someone provide me some other methods to create ideal delay unit for simulation. 

Hope someone knows about it. Thanks. 

  • Without doing any checking, my guess is that you're referring to an analogLib from a different IC version than you're using. That's never a good idea, because there may be dependencies on functions that are in the IC release.

    Make sure your cds.lib is referring to the analogLib correctly - generally I'd advise using this incantation:

    DEFINE analogLib         $(inst_root_with:tools/dfII/bin/virtuoso)/tools/dfII/etc/cdslib/artist/analogLib

    If using IC5141, change the word "virtuoso" in the above to "icfb".

    Regards,

  • Thanks, it works. Actually I have cadence 6.15 and 6.16 on my server and I messed them up.
