need help: Pspice simulation

[november]

pspice undefined parameter:

I am using the model files from foundry to simulate a simple inverter. There are 105 model files and a *_tt0.lib file to link them. I was told that the model files may call each other. I added the *_tt0.lib file into the simulation profile, an undefined parameter:l error happened. Do anybody know what may cause the error?

It seems that the p/nmos models are recognized. The index file is generated for all 105 model files. Is that possible there is some bugs in the model files?
Thanks.

This is the model file for nmos. Do you think sth missing in the first line?
It seems like a SUBCKT file but it is a MODEL file.

external input to pspice

Hi,
I suggest you to work with HSpice. It's better when using libraries.

 

[november]

missing .lib nom.lib

Thank you for reply.
As I know, Hspice usually doesn't work on PC and usually work with Cadence composer, right?

pspice and mosfet wl characteristics

Hi,
No. HSpice can surely be used in PCs. It's just so common. Don't hesitate to try it!

May be try to use silvaco smartspice and gateway. its results match spectre and available on PC
