Hi,
I extracted a netlist from my schematic and fired off hspice. It's a 512b sram design and still running after 12 hours.
My question is:
How do I know it really IS taking that long or the simulation is not converging? Or some other issue..??

Thanks,
TB
 

when you run a simulation in hspice , it generated a .st0 files known as status files.

check this files , it can tell you at what stage simulations is in ...
if you can post your .st0 , log files i can give more details

also tell technology node ?
 

Thanks for the reply. We found the problem. The models were not correctly defined and the runs were going into recursive procedures. Thanks again for the offer to help!

Can I have some guidance regarding simulating An SRAM and also some technology files
 

Not sure what you're looking for. Any specifics?
