question about Encounter Library Characterizer

Nathen

I meet a problem when proccing simulating, this is the part of displays I copy from ELC.

[INFO(db_spice)] Check the encounterlc.log/<ipdb_name>/<DESIGN>_<PROCESS>_<ID>.log file to determine the cause of the failure. The SPICE simulation log file can be found in the /home/nliu7071/signalstorm/ss/encounterlc.work/<DESIGN>_<PROCESS>_<ID>/ directory.

I check the log file and it says that :

Error found by spectre during circuit read-in.
    "typical_D0000_tr.sp" 45: Unknown dot word `.measure'.
    "typical_D0000_tr.sp" 46: Unknown dot word `.measure'.

    "typical_D0000_tr.sp" 52: Unknown dot word `.measure'.
    "typical_D0000_tr.sp" 53: Unknown dot word `.measure'.

What 's the reason of these errors? If there is anyone who faces the same problem before?
  • lisiang

    did you use Hspice or Spectre as the simulator?

    i have got the same message with Nathen when proccing simulating . and i use hspice for simulate.

    how can i solve this problem ?
