Simulations using ADE (G)XL

Simulations using ADE (G)XL

• Create a ADE (G)XL
• Create a Test using schematic view (Schematic view can be only used for schematic simulation. It is highly recommended to create a test using config view, which can be conveniently used for both schematic and postlayout simulation).

Parameter sweeping

• Create a parameter sweeping in ADE L
• Save the setup to an .il file
• Load the parameter sweeping setup in ADE (G)XL
• Run the simulation

Postlayout simulation

• Create a config view
• Create a test in ADE (G)XL using config view
• Setup the simulation configurations (or, you can setup the simulation configurations for config view in ADE L and save the state. Load the saved state).
• Setup the extract view: parasitics>setup>choose the cell to setup its schematic, estimated, an extracted view
• Run the simulation
  • No parasitic: schematic simulation
  • Extracted: postlayout simulation
