How to show all LPFs used in a project

SimTech

In AWR v16 the Layout Process File (LPF file) allows you to configure a project for a manufacturing process. With LPF Units, AWR Design Environment software supports per-process technology native units. This feature allows different designs (using different process technologies) within the same project to specify values in units most appropriate for that design process. You specify the units for each process as part of the layer process file (LPF). For example, a chip design might use units of microns for length, while the board in which the chip is mounted uses units specified in mils for lengths.

You can import an LPF file into a project at any time to facilitate moving designs from one process to another.

To import an LPF file, choose Project > Process Library > Import LPF or right-click Layer Setup in the top pane of the Layout Manager and choose Import Process Definition. You can also export an LPF file from an existing project by choosing Project > Process Library > Export LPF or by right-clicking the process definition object in the top pane of the Layout Manger and choosing Export.

However sometime all the LPF files not visible under Layout Tab, To show all the LPF files in the Layout Tab Choose Options > Environment Options, click the Layout tab and ensure that Show EM Document's LPF is selected. Then, close this dialog box by clicking OK.

    The design environment is the setting in which a product or service is created. It can be a physical space such as an office, or it can be an electronic environment, such as a website. The resumesplanet design environment can influence the way that products are designed, the way that services are provided, and the user experience.
