How to run Assura LVS with vldb and cdl.

 Hello Community,

 I am working on a ibm pdk kit. My design block has cells coming from the pdk and also from the stdcell library from ibm.

The standard cell cadence library has only a symbol view for the cells(I did a  stream in and now also have a layout view) . There is a cdl for all the cells but no schematic views.

I was hoping that I could point to the cdl file as part of "schematic netlisting options form", in assura lvs gui, for the stdcell library cells used in the design.

So I was hoping to run Schematic Design Source-->DFII so all the other primitves that have all needed views in cadence can be used as is. Howvever, this does not seem to work.

So my questions is, How to run Assura LVS with vldb and use cdl netlist for the stdcell library.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

     Hi Andrew,

     

    Thanks for the recommendation.  I do see that in the bind file that there is a mapping of the said fets in both schematic and layout.

    I am contacting ibm as I think they shld be able to provide guidance as it their libs. Thanks again for your suggestions and help on this issue.
