Can anyone tell me how or point me in the right direction to find out how to convert a verilog netlist to a SPICE netlist for LVS. I have the SPICE model and .cir's for the standard cells.

Thanks

Hello,

You don't have to convert verilog netlist to spice netlist for LVS check.

In fact, verilog netlist used to be the top most module/macro in the mixed-mode design.

Please also check these commands, "van" and "nver" and "con".

Regards,
 

In IC5033 you do not, because it will still take a Verilog netlist in. As of IC5141 that is no longer supported in dracula.

I've looked at the van command, but still am unsure how to use it.

May try this fomat,
or create a run batch file as well.

#!/bin/csh -f
#
mkdir vlib
cat << EOF > cds.lib
DEFINE vlib ./vlib
EOF
van your_verilog_netlist.vpr -cds cds.lib -lib vlib
#
#
LOGLVS << END
case
tra 2000000
cir your_cdl_or_spi
nver vlib TopMost_Module
con TopMost_Module
sum
x
END



BTW, you may use v2lvs to translate verilog netlist to spice one.

Regards,
 

IN Calibre , v2lvs is a command just for do it!

:oops: ...

Yes, forgot to say the command v2lvs is on calibre.

ls000rhb, thanks for the correction.

Regards,
 

You import verilog netlist and then export cdl file, you can run LVS in dracula
