Abstract Generator

affaq over 15 years ago

 Hi,

I am using IC 5.1.41  which uses Abstract generator ver 5.10.41. I am using abstract for the very first time for generating LEF files of my design and read through the documentation several times but I am not getting on to it. I want to run abstract from CIW under the tools menu but its not desplying while it runs independently but thats too difficult for me to get results in alotted time.

 

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Affaq,

     

    for a first time user I would advise to go carefully through the tutorial which is provided

    with the software. The description is in the abstract user guide:

    <Your-IC-Install_Dir>/doc/abstract/abstract.pdf

    and the sample database in:

    <Your-IC-Install_Dir>/tools.sun4v/dfII/samples/tutorials/abstract

    After finishing that you can ask more detailed questions.  The PDK you use has

    to be prepared for abstract. 

     

    Regards,

    Marc
