Hi All,
I am using rfde to simulate a circuit with transformers and self designed inductors. However, when I'm doing post layout simulation using ADSsim of RFDE, I got a warning which says "Warning detected by hpeesofsim in Bsource `I1.I77_esdndsx1.grtlp' during DC analysis `Tran1'.
SYM warning: Zero to a non-positive exponent." Then the simulation goes to several iteration and stuck there forever.
I noticed that the "esdndsx1" in the warning comes from the pad, but other students in my lab is using the same pad, and also runing ADSsim, but see no warning or error like this. The whole log is shown below. Anyone please help me? Thanks a lot.
