creating ICT file

yazdan

hi,

 I am going to create ICT file. I have all the documents about creating ICT. What I am wondering about is how I can extract the data needed in ICT file. Are there any other files that I should look the get the data needed in ICT file?

 Thanks

  • Hi yazdan

    Synopsys starRC uses an ITF file which has similar format to our ICT file but I doubt that this source file will be provided in the Synopsys starRC package. Information in the ITF file can indeed be used for coding an ICT file. I will assume that "generic synopsys library" means "lef files for digital place and route". Those will not be helpful for you. I think it would be better if you request for the QRC package from your foundry.

    Please note that I strongly discourage you from coding your ICT file as this can lead to an inaccurate RC extraction if it is not done properly. : )


    Best regards
