Use RedhawkTotem enc.tech file with Cadence Voltus-Fi

Stepahn Walter

Hi,

I have at the moment the problem, that the foundry PDK only provide IR/EM rulesets for RedhawkTotem and not for Cadence. Inside the QRC-Techfile no IR/EM rules are specified.


Therefore, I have only the encrypted emir.enc.tech files for RedhawkTotem. My question is, if there is a possibility to read or convert the files for the usage with Voltus-Fi.

Thx.

    Not as far as I know. It's quite likely that the foundry can provide this information though as the ICT file is used across a wide range of different Cadence tools.

    By all means contact customer support or your account manager - they may be able to provide some details on what is available for the specific technology you're using.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Thx for the reply. It is good to know that there is really no way to import the data sets.

    The foundry have answered this week. There is really no support for Cadence. We are looking forward how the problem can be solved thorugh Cadence or the foundry.

    I think the thread can be closed. There is nothing more to say.

    Stephan,

    Note that often (except for small geometry nodes), entering the EM rules is not that onerous - and can be entered by hand (maybe with the help of an application engineer). So please talk to Cadence using one of the routes I suggested earlier to see how we can help.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
