PEX setup

Arshya
Arshya over 12 years ago
I am using PEX for extraction of my layout in AMS0.35 OPTO. When running PEX I get an error when viewing saying "Incorrect MASK SVDB DIRECTORY options for this funtion". I cannot see the extracted view, and apparently, I cannot get correct extraction. Does anyone know what the SVDB directory is and where I should find it?

    Which extraction tool are you using? I suspect from the terminology that it might be Mentor's Calibre XRC, but please clarify.

    Thanks for your response Andrew. You are right. My extraction tool is Mentor's Calibre XRC.

    In that case you'd probably be best asking this on a Mentor Graphics forum. You may well be able to get somebody who can help you out here, but I'd say your chances were higher on an MGC forum.

    Kind Regards,
    Andrew
