    current vs time graph in cadence ADE L

    First of all if X-axis has to be time, then perform transient analysis (not ac analysis). Probe the node (drain of MOS), and not the net. You might be probing the net hence output is in voltage.

    AMS simulation with Spectre solver problem - error message

    Re: AMS simulation problem For getting good grip on AMS simulation, the only way out is doing more simulations. there are lot of issues as the tools are not mature enough...........for each of the problems you face raise a query with the tool vendor.........they should solve it........and yes...

    AMS simulation with Spectre solver problem - error message

    Re: AMS simulation problem you have to give some more information. It is diffcult to debug from this much information. One possible reason can be that during elaboration phase it is looking for some behavioral file which might be deleted or moved. This is just a guess.

    problem with dft processing gain

    Hi, I am using rectangular window for converting a time domain signal to frequency domain. Now, for finding SNR, do I need to subtract DFT processing gain from the final expression. I mean, does rectangular windowing cause any DFT processing gain???? Best Regards Sarfraz

    Doubt Related to Verilog AMS

    Hi All, Is it possible to declare an analog output array of a block/ For example module XYZ (a,b); output [Array_size-1:0] a; Now how to declare this output a net i.e whether to use wreal or electrical or is there any other assignment. The port a is supposed to carry analog...

    Why we usually set ac=1v?

    Thats true that the tools give us the results even if we put ac as 1V. However theoritically speaking these high value of small signal ac can cause problem, and there can be error in the final results. Sarfraz

    Why is that always Nwell is preferred rather than pwell in a CMOS design?

    Re: CMOS hey u are asking about NMOS and PMOS or nwell and pwell process? It is not true that nwell process are preferred over pwell processes. It depends upon the particular design and architecture implementation

    Why is that always Nwell is preferred rather than pwell in a CMOS design?

    Re: CMOS it is because mobilityt of electrons is more than hole. So it gives more current carring capabiltiy for NMOS as compared to PMOS. There are other things also, you can refer to any book on CMOS regards Sarfraz

    why do transistors with same W/L have different performance?

    Re: why do transistors with same W/L have different performa these effects are basically because of two effects Wide channel or long channel effects (90%) Haloe effect (10%) regards Sarfraz

    Hspice Convergency Issue

    Most of the tolls use iterative methods such as newton raphson method to arrive at solution. For Newton Raphson methods to converge it requires to meet certain conditions. Most of the convergence problems are seen for dc and transient analysis regards Sarfraz

    Why we usually set ac=1v?

    Hi, For biasing all the devices, we need to give a dc shifted small ac signal. you can say something like 1.2 V (dc) + .2 V (ac) Regards Sarfraz

    Why we usually set ac=1v?

    Hi, We set ac=1V only to make the calculations simple for ourselves. i.e ac analysis is done primarily to find the loop characterisitcs. Gain = 20 log (Output/Input ) If input equal to 1, then gain is 20log (output). However one question still remains: ac analysis is a small signal...

    Programmable Divide by N Counter

    Hi, In PLL frequency sysnthesizers, we require programmable Divide by N counters. I need some architecture for programmable divide by N counter. Can anybody forward some documents/notes/book on this topic. Regards Sarfraz

    Integer N PLL and Fractional N PLL

    I am new to PLL design. Can anybody tell me what are the different types of PLL like fractional PLL, integer PLL , Sigma Delta PLL. Can anybody give some brief details of these things Regards Sarfraz
