# This program "Spectre2Hspice.pl" generates Hspice code from
#  Spectre netlist (si.inp)
#  The ouput of this program will then be able to run in Hspice
#  for timing analysis

#######################################################
# how to use this program:
# in the folder where si.inp is found, type
#    perl /home/projects/abraham/vlsi464/spicetest/FinalTOOLS/Spectre2Hspice.pl si.inp 3
# the number 3 at the end is the resolution for the timing analysis. it there is a longer delay, a larger number is used
# so that when running Hspice, the code will not fail.

#######################################################
# Input:
#  si.inp
#  a number for resolution.

#######################################################
# Output:
#  %CELLNAME%.sp

# Hspice will use these two column to generate a matrix of timing analysis
