"The netlist file that you specify for the Spectre® circuit simulator interface with the design command must be netlist. The full path can be specified. For example, /usr/netlist is acceptable. The netlistHeader and netlistFooter files are searched in the same directory where the netlist is located. Cadence recommends that you use the netlist generated from the Virtuoso® Analog Design Environment. Netlists from other sources can also be used, as long as they contain only connectivity. You might be required to make slight modifications." I saw the above paragraph in the Ocean User Guide. As it mentions, I can use netlist files from sources other than Virtuoso. What formats of netlist files does Virtuoso support? How can I use such a netlist file for simulation?
