Simulator Compatibility<br />

Commands in Compat Mode<br />

For example, if your netlist has the following AC analysis, then the frequency interval<br />

used is: x_start=0.1 (fmin) and x_end=10e6 (fmax).<br />

.ac dec 100 0.1 10e6<br />

Note<br />

EZwave is not instructed that compat mode has been used during the .wdb file<br />

generation, so you can incorrectly select rms_ac or rms_noise in the measurement<br />

tool. In this case, only rms_tran must be used to be consistent with compat mode.<br />

See the “.EXTRACT RMS command” in the Eldo Reference Manual.<br />

• .HDL<br />

The syntax is different in compat mode:<br />

.HDL "filename" [module_name] [module_alias]<br />

See the “.HDL command” in the Eldo Reference Manual.<br />

• .LIB<br />

.LIB behaves as .INCLUDE.<br />

See the “.LIB command” in the Eldo Reference Manual.<br />

• .LIN<br />

There are some limitations when using the .LIN command in compat mode:<br />

Parameter modelname is not used by Eldo, if specified it is ignored.<br />

Only format=touchstone is supported. It is set by default, if another format is<br />

specified an error will be displayed.<br />

Parameter noisecalc is not supported in Multiport syntax, only Two-Port syntax.<br />

Parameters gdcalc, FREQDIGIT, SPARDIGIT, listfreq, listcount, listfloor, and<br />

listsources are not supported.<br />

See the “.LIN command” in the Eldo Reference Manual.<br />

• .PLOT/.PRINT<br />

The sign convention of Ix is that the current is positive when it enters the device by pin<br />

x. However, when -compat is set, then the following apply:For R/L/C/E/F/G/H/I/V/D<br />
