Re: error in NAND example

Geoffrey,

I can construct some test benches; can I assume spectre format is OK?

I just retrieved all examples (viva wget!), and ran a 2.2 compliant compiler on the Verilog-A itself. Of the 146 examples, 72 generated errors (plus 6 warnings). Most of these warnings are quite trivial, either undefined macro's or disciplines (no includes), some of them related to the examples actually being Verilog-AMS, a few related to compiler limitations. Most of them are portability issues between Verilog-AMS 1.0 and Verilog-AMS 2.2.

There is one erroneous link in the page http://www.eda-stds.org/verilog-ams/htmlpages/sample_lib.afem.html: the file V_ctrl_pwl_limited.va cannot be found. Can you check whether there is a file present in the directory with a similar name or is it completely absent?

Cheers,
Marq

These models have been around for a very long time; the timestamps
say 1998, which means Verilog-A 1.0.

I'd be happy to help re-write a few, if someone else wants to
write a testbench to verify they work.

What is exactly the status of these models and how long have they been around? Is any maintenance planned for these models or are they a one-time selection of examples against one particluar version of the LRM?
