Resistor Device

The Spectre resistor device is translated as an ADS resistor device. For information on the resistor model, refer to R_Model (Resistor Model).

Example Spectre Command Line:

Without model referenced:
r1 (1 2) resistor r=1.2k m=2
With model referenced:
r1 (1 2) resmod l=8u w=1u

Spectre Netlist Syntax:

Without model referenced:
name n1 n2 resistor [param= value ]*
With model referenced:
name n1 n2 mname [param= value ]*

ADS Netlist Syntax:

R: rid n1 n2 R= value [param= value ]*

ADS Schematic Symbol:

Instance Parameters:

For information on parameter format, refer to Using Parameter Mapping Tables to Understand a Translation
