Spectre Error

Dear group,

We are setting up a new designkit and we are experiencing a strange
problem when simulting.

Inside a Verilog-A File I see following lines, which create a syntax error
and I dont know why because I do not understand verilog-A

Spectre just reports a syntax error during AHDL Readin.


Whats going wrong ?


`MPRcc( TR , 21.0 , "degC" , -250.0 , 1000.0 , "nominal
(reference) temperature")
`MPRoo( LMIN , 1.0e-08 , "m" , 0.0
, inf , "minimum allowed drawn length")
`MPRoo( LMAX , 9.9e+09
, "m" , 0.0 , inf , "maximum allowed drawn length")

Presumably they're using macros called MPRcc and MPRoo which need to have been
defined (usign `define) somewhere. If they're not defined in the file, then they
would need to be defined in a file which is included via a `include statement at
the top of the file.

In themselves they are not VerilogA syntax, so they would need to be
macro-expanded first by the preprocessor.

Andrew.
