Polynomial Voltage-Controlled Voltage Source (pvcvs)

The Spectre pvcvs device is translated as an ADS NonlinVCVS device.

Example Spectre Command Line:

v1 (p 0 c1 0) pvcvs coeffs=[0 0 0 0.1 1 1] gain=1

Spectre Netlist Syntax:

name p n ps1 ns1 ... pvcvs coeffs=[ ... ] [param= value ]*

ADS Netlist Syntax:

VCVS_Z: name node1 node2 node3 node4 [param= value ]*

Note The netlist syntax for ADS is valid only when using the backward-compatibility option (-bc option). The order of nodes is reversed because Spectre components list the output node pair first, followed by the input node pairs.
