selective R extraction with Calibre

[duling653]

Full RC extraction using calibre making the netlist too large to run simulation. Is there any way to extract all C but selectively extract R for only a few critical nodes?

Yes, there is. In the xRC or xACT manual, look for a section called "Extracting a Netlist with Mixed Parasitic Networks." (Section titles change some times, so if your manual doesn't have that section, search for "PEX Extract Include" - the SVRF command you want.) The current manual on SupportNet gives instructions for doing it with Calibre Interactive or modifying your files.
