The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hi,
Can any one tell me how do I import an HSPICE level 49 spice model to ADS?

I used the "import" in ADS and used the "design parameter", created a new bitmap for symobol, added it to pallete, and library browser, added a "netlist include" statement in my schematics........ but somehow the simulator doesn't associate my new symbol with the spice model, sometimes I get error about port matching..... the transistor is a four terminal device so I used a one of the existing symbol for MOSFET but I still got this error.

Has any one imported a hspice model to ADS and used it in their schematics for creating Amplifier?

Can you please write down the steps in reply?

thanks,

Top

use a feature called ADS netlist import

from the main window , select import and select netlist file
in more options , select netllist type HSPICE
and make it genrate ADS netlist

this will generate a *.net file which contains the transformed model to ADS model

i have used this many time , and it is succeeded
