Hello

I am just starting with PTM and want to use them in Spectre. I want to use 16nm PTM LP Model. Is there any one who can help step by step . I dont understand how can I take model details from PTM website to Spectre? Please reply in detail.

You can use standard SPICE models in SPECTRE. Just mark the beginning with

simulator lang=spice

Thanks for your reply erikl. I have actually made a new library for PTM models and have copied two transistors (NMOS and PMOS) from analog lirary into it. Now I dont understand how to make the downloaded (.pm) file, the property of these transistors. I hope you can help in this regard.

The .pm files are SPICE files. Just include the a.m. simulator language statement in front of the file(s).

May be you additionally have to insert the devtype parameter, s. this posting.
