Slow ncls in AMS

twen
twen over 9 years ago


Hi, I am in the process to convert a Spectre/APS testbench into an AMS/APS testbench. I can simulate my old pure analog testbench with AMS/APS with the expected results. After I added a very simple verilog/AMS view and connected it to the DUT in my testbench and press the run button in ADE, I noticed there is a ncls process running for about 10 minutes before elaboration. What does it do and why is it so much slow?

ncls -64bit -verilog -f /mytb/ams/config/netlist/findPackageOpt

// IC subversion:  IC6.1.6-64b.500.14
// IUS version: 15.20-s004

Thanks,
TJ

    Hi, Andrew,

    I switched back to INCISIVE 14.20.014 and ncls won't stall any more.

    Thank you very much,

    TJ
