Hi,
Fairly trivial question: What is the proper way to model a nonlinear capacitor in Virtuoso?
In LTSpice, I can just use an expression like this:
In Cadence, I tried the following:
However, first I would need to manually add the node name "vout" into the expression ... which means if I change the name of the output node in Cadence I need to change it in the object properties as well.
Second, the variable "vout" always lands as a variable in my ADE L window when I start simulation.
Hence I am not sure this is the right way to do it ...

Code:
Q=1e-6*x+a*1e-6*0.5*tanh(2*x)
In Cadence, I tried the following:
Code:
C1 (vout 0) capacitor c=1e-6*(1+0.5*v(vout,0))
