Hi guys,I am now doing custom IC design and face a problem of how to
verify it...
My design is a digital block(a filter using a lot of alike taps) in
the project but uses custom cells to reduce area. The design is too
large(500k using .13 technology) to use Spice to simulate ,and can't
use back-annotation on verilog netlist(we don't have a cell library
-_-! ). One method I could find out is to use TimeMill to simulate :
1.extract spice file from layout gds(one of the tap,small enough
to run simulation)
2.use original verilog netlist(pre-layout)
3.add them together using Timemill(and test vectors corresponds to
verilog netlist, no vectors dirrectly add to the spice netlist)
But the question is I am not familiar with Timemill and I could not
find any information about how to merge verilog and spice together...
Any help will be appreciated!
