Manual editing of a p2lvsfile

Slawa

 Hello

 After I have faced the following error: ERROR (LBMISC-215480): at "RCXdspf": LVS connectivity file /.../  is missing .2. in the course of start qrc at me there was a necessity of editing p2lvsfile.

In a "ICT.file" is
  # Diffusion Layers
diffusion NP {thickness, resistivity} and

 # dielectric Layers
dielectric   STI {conformal FALSE, height, thickness, dielectric_constant}.

How they are necessary for setting in p2lvsfile if to them as a matter of fact corresponds nothing in a RULEfile? 

 How to be with layers which are created directly in RULEfile but are used in LVSFILE? For example there is layer PACTIVE=Layer1 and (Layer2 or Layer3) which is set in RULEfile and in LVSFILE it is used only as:

 model = diode[DP],DP
element diode[DP] DPPLUS PACTIVE NWELL

 It turns out that in LVSFILE there is no information on the given layer as well as there is no information on it in ICT.

    Many thanks for the help. QRC successfully started. And concerning replacement p2lvsfile on layer_setup_file... unfortunately compilation in such mode (are not created RCXpsiceINIT, RCXdspfINIT). About the given problem I wrote in theme Techgen + RCXdspfINIT.

     How to be if a layer in ICT corresponds at once to two layers in LVSFILE? How it to define in p2lvsfile?

    As has been mentioned layer_setup_file I will dare to ask at once a question not to create a separate theme. Whether identical structure at it in comparison with p2lvsfile? A method of experiment I have revealed only one difference... This requirement at one of them to " ; "at the end of line

     

    Best regards
