Clock Mesh specification in Encounter: analysis specification

HansRey
HansRey over 10 years ago

Hi,

I'm doing a design using a clock mesh, and I would like to do spice extraction for back annotation in Encounter. In my clock mesh spec file I have the library defined like this:

        Analysis
            MultiPartSpice true
            MultiPartSpicePartitionLevel 4
        End
        SpiceLib
            Library toplevel.l TOP_TT
            Include drive_cells.sp
            Global Power VDD
            Global Ground VSS
            SubcktPortSeq drive_cells.spo
        End


When I try to specify the clock mesh using the clock mesh file, I get the following error:

**ERROR: (ENCCM-192):    Failed parsing clock mesh specification at or near NTmesh.spec:64. Reason: Unexpected token "SpiceLib".

Any help?

When I comment out the full analysis and spicelib section, I can load the clock mesh spec file without any problems....

Kind regards!
