Hello, I'm new with Pspice (only 3 days) and I've to make a differential amplifier with CMOS (N and P) to run. I've made it but when I run it, it shows me the message
"M_Q6 N01848 N02912 N01565 CMOSP
+ L=10u
----$
ERROR -- unknown parameter
+ W=12u"
twice. I have to finish the project in 5 hours! and I don't know what to do.
Could anyone help me please!!!!!!????
This is all the message I get in case you need it.

Thank you.(I try to attach the schematic but I was not permitted)

You are missing the bulk connections for the mosfets where the errors occur. Declaration of a mosfet in spice is:

MNAME D G S B MODEL [PARAMS]

Anything inside [] is optional. Have a look at your netlist, for the mosfet that do not generate an error you have 4 nodes following the M_XX while the one that produces an error you have only 3 nodes.
