Parasitic EXtraction of an interconnect capacitance

Ueue
Ueue over 14 years ago

Hi all,

 

I am trying to create an interconnect capacitance in my circuit.

So I created a schematic view with only the PINs (PLUS and MINUS) and I created the layout of the cell.

My aim is to extract the parasitics for having a schematic to use in simulations.

The problem is that, when I try to run the Calibre PEX (as for the LVS), I get:

"ERROR: Nothing in source.

ERROR: Nothing in layout. "

How can I solve the problem of extracting the parasitics from my cell?

 

Thanks,

Stefano

    Hi Stefano,

    Since Calibre PEX and Calibre LVS are tools from Mentor Graphics, not Cadence, you might be better off asking this on a Mentor forum?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
