Facing problem during simulation using external .txt file as stimulus

Analog Design

 Hi ,

     I am giving two column (time/voltage ) .txt file  as  stimulus in spectre  . But during simulation the error coming as like below 

"Error  found by spectre during circuit read in" .

  • I can't check the attachments, but the obvious error is that you've specified the text file via the stimulus files in ADE. That's wrong. A stimulus file should be a spectre netlist, not a file containing time-voltage pairs. As a result, spectre would be trying to interpret the text file as a spectre netlist, which it isn't.

    You would give the path to the file on the vsource component only (sounds as if you've done that).

    I'll check your attachments when I am in the office and can access a web browser.

    Regards,

    Andrew
