Hi everybody!
I am using Synopsys HSPICE to analyze a circuit and I have a problem with the HSPICE parser for back-annotation.
I have specified the spef file for the circuit it gives me the error "unfound instance" for each element of the HSPICE netlist. For example in my netlist I have the element:
Code:
.SUBCKT dff4 CP D Q gnd gnds vdd vdds
...
.ENDS

XFP_R_reg[10] clk_G1B1I4 D Q 0 0 vdd vdds dff4
then in the SPEF file I have the net definition:
Code:
*D_NET clk_G1B1I4 7.770e-03
*CONN
...
*I FP_R_reg\[10\]:CP I
...
*CAP
...
14 FP_R_reg\[10\]:CP 4.409e-04
*END
and the error is:
Code:
(./hspice/cir/cir.spef:35658) clk_G1B1I4 FP_R_reg[10]:CP unfound instance
I don't know how I have to write the hspice netlist in order to make it match with the parasitic information.

Is here somebody who can explain me how to do that, please?
Thanks!
