Hi,
I am playing with the SpectreRF Engine Simulink connector and face severe problems.
First of all, it is unuseable slow!
I created a simple RF passive mixer. If I simulate it in Spectre alone it is done in a fraction of a second.
If I use the connector with the same input signals from Simulink, it takes 20 minutes!
But it becomes worse: I just duplicate my mixer to have 2 mixers in just one instance. The second mixer is not even used and connected. Again, simulating this in ADE alone is done within a fraction of a second.
With Simulink, simulation starts and at some point Simulink terminates with
block 'cadence_mixer_test/SpectreRF Engine': (COSIM_ERROR) Simulation terminated with error
while Spectre continues to simulate.
I understand that there is ovehead involved but 500ms vs. 20min for the most simple circuit can't be normal.
Is there anything to improve this?
