Hello, i am trying to simulate my inductor s-param with goldengate . i have built the schematics and defined the simulation as shown bellow.
but it says that i havent defined sparam ports although i did defined them in schematics .
i have added the error and the full log bellow.
i know that goldengate is a keysight product but my error is in the schematics step.
if still its beyong the scope i will try with spectre.
Thanks.
