Good day, Everyone

I am using ADS Keysight in the design of my schematic and the layout of a circuit. However, I am encountering a problem. I do not know how to select an appropriate wire for each terminal.
Foe example, I am using a CBEBC npn configuration with 3 terminals, numbered 1,2 and 3 for collector, base and emitter respectively.
My questions are as follows:
1. Must i connect to the terminals listed above or the body of the collector, base and emitter?.
2. Should i use the default line provided by ADS when connecting to either terminal or body?
3. If i must use a different line, how do I go about selecting the appropriate one?.
4. Is the terminal connecting to the substrate not important as i can only find 3 terminals instead of 4 seen in the schematic?.

Thank you.
 

Hi,
It would help if you show your schematic.
 

Connect exactly as shown in your schematic:

NPN transistor base connected to the same subc cell as the MIM capacitor bases.
Even better: use extra subc cells for each of these base connections, if they are too far away from each other.

Connect by ME1 only - do not use poly.
