which tool to simulate PLL on transistor level??

[zhangjavier]

pll transistor

i want to simulate charge pump ,divider, pfd,which eda tool should i use??
which simulation engine should i use?

A few names that can do this job: Cadence Virtuoso, Microwave Office, ADS.
You can try Transient Analysis or Harmonic Balance (or both).

Can verilog-a,hspice or other simulation tools do some job??

 

[orley]

hspice and spectre can simulate the PLL system on transistor level ,though it is very slow but it is only a accurate method. Verilog-A only simulate PLL on behavior level and be used in simple research or verification in advance.

It puzzle the IC design engineer to simulate PLL in sample and fast method.

ADS is better

Spectrrf & ADS are great

Hi,
What do you thing of Dolphin Smash ?

Reputation of FastSpice is fairly good.
