Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

I am trying to use AMS simulator for my mixed signal design. I have no specified exmple libraries in the documentation in the installation directories of CADENCE software and when I complained about the same my Cadence adminstartor told me that he downloaded the files very recently. So I am trying to define user defined connect rules modules as specified in the AMS simulator reference manual in the Mixed signal aspects chapter. But when I try to incude connetmodule in the DFII environment with top module as "connectmodule" it says top module cant be connect module. I tried to incude the connect module into another file with some other module as top module but in that ase connect modules are not identified and mixed nets are fail at elaboration stage. I tried to make it know to elaborator through a statement like "ncelab crules" where crules is a connectrules module identifier. But the elaborator reports crules model not found. What is the correct method to inculde the connectrules modules in the IC5141 environment???

Thanis in advance for any help.

Please run through the tutorials in the documentation. That will make it clearer.

Also you might look at papers presented at BMAS (www.bmas-conf.org) - my paper last year was about connect_modules for CML style signals..
But I probably assumed some knowledge of how to use them..

>I have no specified exmple libraries

Cadence includes many Connect Modules in the IUS hierarchy. Include the following libary file:

$AMSHOME/tools/affirma_ams/etc/connect_lib/cds.lib

and run the amsConnectLibCompile script available here:

$AMSHOME/tools/affirma_ams/etc/install/amsConnectLibCompile
