Getting Monte Carlo analysis to work on Cadence can be a bit of a puzzle given how Cadence is a ball of various software tools stuck together with spit. You have have seen the following intermodal nastygram: Research Links ReadMeMonteCarlo.txt SPICEModelsAndSimulations_13.pdf

The key to solving the problem was carefully looking at the Cadence text output and then opening the correct log file named: ahdlcmi.out . This file was located in the project folders. The following problems were flagged /usr/include/gnu/stub-32.h /usr/lib/crti.o ld can not find -lc ld can not find -lc was Read more…
Conclusions The problems of phase 1 below were due to running the xkit -t xh018 script from a directory that already contained entries resulting from another technology. That confused it well and good. Phase 1 Research Links How to use PDK in cadence Cadence getting started see below: What Read more…
Report Delivered for this project here This entry records the steps taken after the above report was delivered. BookSeeBookSee TN3 was too long previous to this fix. Thus TN5 was not shutting off sufficiently and drawing too much current off of the current mirror. Next Steps: Redo startup transient analysisResearch Read more…
I had a problem where when I returned to my opensuse based machine my Cadence design library was no where to be seen in the library manager. In order to for it to show up again in the list there are 2 ways of approaching the problem. With the Log Read more…
