is it possible to run LVS when the layout and schematic are in different library?

llobak

Hi,

 I'm trying to run LVS where my layout and schematic are in different library. Can anyone help me?

I think i need to specify the location of the schematic in the *.vlr file, is it right? But the problem here is I do not know how to set the *.vlr file. The LVS that i'm using generates the vlr file by itself.

can anyone guide me how the cellname.vlr file being created?

 If i'm wrong, can anyone guide me where should i start? Thanks

 

Regards,

SL

  • SL,

    It tends to help if you say what LVS tool you're using. My guess is that it's Assura, based on the "*.vlr" reference above. Are you running Assura from the command line, or integrated into Virtuoso? If in Virtuoso, you can just do Assura->Run LVS and then you can specify the lib/cell/view of both the schematic and layout (assuming the input is dfII in both cases).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
