Protocol
This option describes the standard Analog Insydes protocol specification (see Section 3.14.5). The
top-level function for the Protocol option is ReadNetlist. The second-level function is
ExpandSubcircuits.
Simulator
ReadNetlist supports the following simulators and file types:
simulator netlist file type output file type
"AnalogArtist"
"AnalogInsydes"
*.m file
*.m file
"Eldo" *.cir file *.chi file
"PSpice" *.cir file *.out file
"Saber" *.sin file saved ssparam output
Supported simulators and file types by ReadNetlist.
ReadNetlist appends Simulator −> simulator to the GlobalParameters field of the returned
Circuit object. This enables the Analog Insydes models to determine which simulator-specific
properties of the models have to be chosen. For more information on the simulator-specific features
see Section 3.10.2.
UserPDKMap
Note that this option is only supported by the Analog Artist interface. UserPDKMap specifies a
user-definable command for making changes with respect to a certain process design kit (PDK) to a
netlist before setting up circuit equations.
The function is called with the pattern fct["process", "pdkversion", netlistentry], where the strings
"process" and "pdkversion" correspond to the option values of the global circuit parameters Process
and PDKVersion respectively. In this context Process−>"process" denotes the name of the semiconductor
fabrication process used to design a circuit, and PDKVersion−>"pdkversion" indicates the
version of the PDK used to create and simulate a circuit. If UserPDKMap−>None is used, no changes
are applied to netlist elements.
