Spectre error

Dear all,

I am trying to simulate a design. All works well with "spectreS"
simulator, but when it comes to "spectre" then I get an error.

Error found by spectre during circuit read-in.
"input.scs" 8: Unable to open library file
`/opt/eda/xfab/spectre/xc06/xc06.scs'.
No such file or directory.

spectre terminated prematurely due to fatal error.

I am using XFAB 0.6u technology and the folder xc06 corresponds to
that. I have checked that the library file xc06.scs file indeed does
not exist.

Why is it that it works well with "spectreS" and not with "spectre".
How could i make my design work for "spectre"? I am new to cadence.

Thanks in advance,
Kamesh

Spectre error

Hi mmohsen,

Yeah my libraries are loaded.

I have just checked out the documentaion for X-fab. It has a link to X-FAB supported Design Programs. Here is the link to the screenshot.

Unfortunately "spectre" is no where to be found there. But i could find "spectreS". So i guess i have to work with spectreS. Any other suggestions ?
