user defined capacitor with advanced analysis

archive

Hello,

i am trying to define a capacitor(let us call it ucap) with advanced analysis capability in Allegro HDL. For this purpose i have take a look on the structure and properties of the capacitor which is located in the pspiceelement library. The ucap symbol has now all the properties which are defined on the pspiceelement capacitor in part developer like TC,IC,NEGTOL,SLOPE,...

When i run an analog simulation with this part, it is not recognized as advanced analysis part. I have read on sourcelink that all parts that all parts for the advanced analysis should be listed in the templates.prp file.

My Questions are:
-Does any one have experience in this topic(adding advanced analysis capability to R,L,C´s)?
-Is it possible to change the content of the templates.prp file? and if yes which implications does that mind for the templates_prp.ind file?

I would appreciate any response and thanks in advance

  • So - is your problem concerned with C1 i.e. you are not able to select C1 for Optimizer? If yes, do you know for sure that the symbol for C1 is coming from the PSpice Advanced Analysis library?

    I use OrCAD Capture (not Allegro Design Entry HDL) so am not sure the name of the library that contains PSpice AA symbols but in OrCAD Capture/PSpice flow the PSpice AA library that contains capacitor is PSPICE_ELEM.OLB.

    May be you have the same name library for Allegro Design Entry HDL - make sure that the symbol for C1 is coming from that library and then see if you can add C1 for Optimization.
