Forum Post: RE: How to use a custom netlist procedure (and OSSHNL-116 error)
The issue is that when you switch into a view with the normal OSS-type netlisters, they need to have what's called a "shadow" database to contain the information about the I/O (the terminals) of that...

Hello, I have a script which generates a layout transistor pattern. Then i needed to bind this layout to a schematic in order to have it XL happy. I searched in the older links here and i found these...

Thanks for the explanation. Can I "create" this shadow database with SKILL so that the netlister will not complain? It doesn't have to make sense because my netlisting function does two things: 1) it...

Thanks! Exporting the netlist, editing it, and importing the new netlist worked

Hi Patrik, I think you should be able to do: cv=dbOpenCellViewByType("mylib" "mycell" "mytext" "netlist" "ac") a=dbCreateNet(cv "a") dbCreateTerm(a "a" "input") etc. The idea is that you're creating...

Hi Sanaz, I would generally advise that you use the parameters capability (variables and parameters assistant) in ADE XL to do this, which would involve setting an expression for Wn and Wp as a...

I have a pour that was creasted by adding a shape in a route keepin. I've contracted the keepin in shape, but the pour doesn't adjust to stay inside it. I have a few to do, so this would be nicer than...

Hi Andrew, Thank you. Yes, I am aware of the BSIM problems and the forum references. My models are utsoi (which are based on PSP). But apart from that, I am seeing these inconsistencies even without...

Dear Andrew, Thank you for your response. I guess you are right about the multiple values of Wn and Wp which gives the same g, and at the moment I just need to find the value of g which maximizes the...

Eugene, Not as far as I know. You should contact customer support as this would probably be an enhancement request (I'm not sure how likely it is that we'd provide a public way to add a run mode...
