For standard cells you need to add this line in the testbench:
.include /<pdk_install_root>/share/pdk/sky130A/libs.ref/sky130_fd_sc_hd/spice/sky130_fd_sc_hd.spice
Of course replace <pdk_install_root> with the location of the pdk install on your machine (may be /usr/local but depends on installation).
This single file contains the spice netlists of all standard cells.
from xschem_sky130.
You don't need to use the xschem_sky130
repository directly. Install open_pdks
. This will get the spice models and the xschem symbols.

Hi @StefanSchippers ,
I had previously installed open_pdks
. I do not have any issues simulating circuits with the sky130 devices themselves when I include the path to the model files referenced in Corner: tt
.
What syntax is needed for the .include
statement as it pertains to the standard cell library components in sky130_fd_sc_hd
?
Thank you!

Thank you @StefanSchippers !
Inclusion of your referenced line in the testbench works.
As a follow-up question: Are you able to provide some context/background information as to how the constituent transistors of the standard cells were sized?
Take for example the standard cells nand2_1
and nor2_1
. It appears that all PMOS and NMOS transistors of these gates have been sized W=1
and W=0.65
, respectively. This suggests that transistor sizing was not based-on arriving at comparable (worst-case) rise and fall times. So what was the sizing based-on?
Thank you!
