RE: Post layout simulation using Ocean Script
Hi Ishant, I assume you have a postlayout netlist ready and you are only looking to add Spectre/APS options like +postlayout to the run. Is that right? Regards, Saloni

Ma'am, Got the solution thanks. Once you have included calibre in the environment and run the simulation for once in GUI it automatically includes RC(PEX) in netlist. We don't need to write any extra...

View ArticleRE: PAM4 Signal using ahdllib or bmslib
No, these don't generate PAM4 signals. Whilst of course you could write a model to do so, it's probably simpler to use the "vsource" component from analogLib, which you can then set the Source Type to...
