message is issued. If not specified, it defaults to the same name as the input directory name
but with a suffix “_converted.” Default ./{in_dir}_converted for output name.
• -log file
Specifies the log file that contains a brief report about the conversion process including any

or by full path, or relative path to the current working directory.
• -remove_param 1|0
If set to 1, some model card parameters not supported by Eldo are removed. Default is 1

BSIM3v3.
• -remove_param_warn 1|0
If set to 1, a warning is issued each time one of the above parameters is removed. This works
only if -remove_param is set. Default is 0 (not set).

If set to 1, useful converter warnings are printed inline as comments in the converted netlist
to ease any required manual conversion work. Default is 0 (not set).

means that it would be converted to devx.

If set to 1, all files with extension .scs are converted to the extension .lib. This also handles
all include statements. Default is 0 (not set).
