*Warning* (DB-220704) : The Pcell super master : lf150rf_lib/ResistorUnit/layout is not a SKILL super master

Hello,

I have recently installed IC615 and using LFoundry 150nm tech file. While trying to generate the layout from Schematic, I get the following error and in the layout, I can only see a while square (no layers) in place of capacitor and MOS layout. However, the inductor layout appears normal. Can someone tell me how to resolve the issue.

*Warning* (DB-220704) : The Pcell super master : lf150rf_lib/ResistorUnit/layout is not a SKILL super master.

The usage of non-SKILL Pcells in Virtuoso is not a supported feature.

 

Can someone help me how to resolve the issue.

Regards,

    Thank you all for your replies. I have checked the cshrc file with the help of IT Manager and we found that we already have PyCell Studio to run the Non SKILL Pcells but some paths were not correct. We corrected them and now I can see the layout layers. The thing is, I can see that some warnings still persist and they were there before the changes as well. They are like

    *WARNING* (LX-2003): Cannot create instance terminal on layout instance 'IM25' because the instance master 'lf150_rflib/nmosrf_hs_4/layout''does not have a corresponding terminal 'B'

    Similar message was appearing for other terminals of the MOS but now they have disappeared. Any idea of what this is indicating??

    Regards,
