Forum Post: RE: Fluid GR automation
I suspect you probably should contact customer support for this as we probably need to see your fluid guard rings to be able to work out what the issue is. Your code uses some uninitialised variables,...
View ArticleForum Post: Error about Environment Variable settings
Hello, After doing an update to the new pdk I get the following error. I think It comes from my .csinit file. It is asking about the EV variable of GF_PDK_HOME not being set. And many other errors that...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: Device spacing in modgen using SKILL
For each of the member lists you pass to ciConCreate, there are a set of properties you can provide - you see these in the documentation examples as things like "row", "column", "abutment". You can...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: Error about Environment Variable settings
Haven't you answered your own question? It sounds as if it's expecting the UNIX $GF_PDK_HOME to be set to the location of the PDK (I assume). Because that's not set, the SKILL variable gfPdkHome is...

I think the first is a mistake in the documentation. I don't think it's related to the number of points in the signal - there's just a default value which happens to be 1024 The prime number part could...

Hi Andrew, Thanks a lot for the hints. In my case the results() returns a list, as expected for completed simulation. I'll implement the hint you provided on step 2. I have also other analysis types,...

You can't do that. You'd have to analyse the raw data. Some of the functions in the eye diagram assistant can be used to generate expressions which measure many of these things. You can probably...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: Cadence Spectre cannot read library model files
Hi Xin, One possibility might be that your file server is using a file system with 64-bit inodes (such as XFS). You didn't mention what OS your server is running on. These newer file servers represent...
View ArticleForum Post: RE: multiple instances for monte carlo
From what you've described, that should be OK. You can also use one of the newer (more efficient) sampling methods such as "Low Discrepancy Sequence" which tends to avoid wasted samples which just...

Hi Amir, Apologies for the delay in responding. I understand - I don't think there's a way to do that though. I suggest you contact customer support (if you've not done so already) as this seems a...

Unfortunately there's not really much info to go on here (you didn't even mention which version of the tools you're using). I suggest you contact customer support (although I'd try in the latest tool...

This sounds as if you're including all the model files twice (or loading multiple model files which define different versions of the same model names) - which probably is why the original problem...

No, I don't know why this should be. One key difference is that it echos the simulator output into the CIW which can be slow in some versions. Perhaps you need to use: envSetVal( "asimenv.misc"...

I don't know the answer. I suggest you contact customer support as this probably needs R&D input to ensure the documentation gets updated to link to the explanation of each parameter. Regards, Andrew

Without seeing the data, it's hard to know what could be wrong. Best to contact customer support for this kind of problem where it needs the data to be able to diagnose the problem. Regards, Andrew

View ArticleForum Post: RE: Error about Environment Variable settings
Well I might be wrong but in your .cdsinit it says: if(gfPdkHome = getShellEnvVar("/home/grps/ef-test/GLF8HP/130HPSIGE-8HP/") ...shouldn't that be getShellEnvVar("GF_PDK_HOME") Looks to me like you...
