Avoid "_" when expanding busses during hspice netlisting

Hi All,

I have a problem with a generated netlist. When generating a hspiceS
netlist via ADE, the busses
are always expanded as follows:

BUS1(2:0) --> BUS1_2, BUS1_1 and BUS1_0

I want it to be netlisted without the underscore:

BUS1(2:0) --> BUS12, BUS11 and BUS10

Does anyone know how this can be achieved?

Thanks in advance,
Christian

Christian,

This is certainly possible with hspiceD - see sourcelink solution 11145548 .

Note that hspiceS is obsolete - and so you should move to hspiceD as soon as you
can.

Anyway, for hspiceS, I think you should be able to create a .simrc file (say in
the working directory), and put:


hnlMapNetInName = '( ( "<" "" ) ( ">" "" ))

In fact it's probably wiser to do:

when(simSimulator=="hspiceS")
hnlMapNetInName = '( ( "<" "" ) ( ">" "" ))
)

(I've not tested this, by the way... - it may well break other mappings that are
done for illegal characters).

Regards,

Andrew.
