Tool/software:
In PSPICE, I am getting an error for each NC (Not Connected) pin when I try to create a netlist. After researching, I found two potential solutions:
1. Use a very large resistor to simulate a floating pin. This approach only allowed me to generate a netlist, but failed to simulate. The simulation error seems to be internal to the IC Model design. The simulator says the NC nodes have less than two connections (e.g. dead-end).
2. Edit the IC Model Properties: In Property Editor, go to 'Pins' tab, then add a new property called 'FLOAT' and give each NC pin a value of 'e'. Then provide a Net Name value of 'UniqueNet'. I was able to create a FLOAT property and provide values of 'e' for each NC pin, however, I cannot edit the 'Net Name' values, so this solution does not work for me.
I believe the "node has less than two connections" error is due to the absence of Net Names for the NC pins.
I need a solution or workaround.
