SPICE Format

Presentation

The Spice format was developped at the University of California, Berkeley. This parser/driver consists in a subset of SPICE3 netlist format. (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPICE for more informations).

Stand alone database structure

The database consists in several objects:

Using the parser

Simply load an Spice netlist file using the static function SPICE::Circuit::readFromFile().

Using the driver

Using the driver is very simple, user has to create a SPICE::Circuit object and simply add others Spice objects like SPICE::Subckt or SPICE::Instance to it. Includes, libraries and parameters can also be added to SPICE::Circuit. Finally use the SPICE::Circuit::writeToFile() method to dump the database to file.

Examples

As said is the global presentation, VLSI SAPD project provides C++ libraries and Python modules for each supported format. In this section we present simple code examples to parse and drive a SPICE file using C++ or Python. The SPICE file considered describes a simple Miller OTA: OTA_miller.spi
