saving operating points

Charanraj Mohan

Hi,

I am writing something like this below,

'save M0,M1:all'

in the file saveop.scs and loading this in the model libraries setting of the ADE and getting the dc operating points in the simulation.

It worked well in AMS 0.35um, UMC 130nm, but not in ST 130nm :-(

Do you have an alternate way to this easier like above or to tackle this ??

I am using IC 6.1.6 130 version.


Thanks in advance.

  • Thanks Andrew,
    I selected gm in the options of the 'Operating parameter' and ran the simulation. And I do not get any plot. When I click 'plot Outputs' icon in ADE, I see the error, as mentioned in my previous reply along with a warning at last which says, Wave1 is not a waveform object that can be displayed and will be DELETED automatically.

    As you were talking about the models, the details of the model are as below-
    The model is a high voltage pMOSFET named 'pdomos50' in ST 130nm. I spotted a difference of these MOSFETs from other kits. When I select the MOSFET and press 'Q' to know its parameters, I can see an option called 'Model name' and under it I have 8 choices to select, as follows,

    1.EP5V0_BS3JU
    2.EP5V0_BS3JULEAK
    .
    .
    .
    .
    7.EP5V0_PSP
    8.user

    I think these are BSIM3 and Penn State Philips models. I choose the first one i.e. EP5V0_BS3JU and ran simulation. Are these details helpful in knowing whats happening ?

    Thanks.
