Hi , This error along with the solution is documented in Hspice user manuel. Consult page 980 solution: 293 Problem: 1. A voltage source with the inductor connected to the same point. 2. A voltage source with an inductor connected directly across its nodes. 3.Two or more inductors connected in a loop with nothing to limit the current. Solution: connect a small resistor, e.g:1nano ohms, in series. Brahim Mohammad Ali wrote: > Hello, > > I am running one spice simulation using Avanti HSPICE tool.
