In this handout, we will learn how to extract layout with Assura RCX and simulate (with HSPICE) from the extracted layout.
Assura --> Run
RCX...
. Change the defaults on this form as follows:After completing extraction, you are ready to simulate your extracted results. Now, your circuit simulation environment should be set up so that your "device-under-test" (DUT) is a separate symbol in a schematic in which the stimulus is applied to the pins of the symbol. From this simulation schematic, bring up the Analog Environment window by choosing Tools -> Analog Environment. Now choose Setup -> Environment. On the Setup Environment form, on the "Switch View List" line, add the field "av_extracted" right before "schematic." Now simulate you design as you did before. In this case, your "av_extracted" view will be netlisted instead of the "schematic" view, bringing in all the parasitics you extracted.
