Virtuoso crashing on executing mgc_rve_load_setup_file command for big layouts

anandmohan

HI

I am trying to execute  the following 'mgc_rve_load_setup_file' command in CIW for a batch of cells.( mgc_rve_load_setup_file command is used to generate calibre view from a pex netlist). For that I am using the below skill code.

procedure(pex_list()
mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_1")
mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_2")

mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_3")

mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_4")

)

I will load the skill file and then the function pex_netlist() is called in CIW window. For smaller cells like flip-flop,inverter etc the calibre view is getting generated.  But if I try to generate the calibre view of a larger cell (example cells with more that 10 flip-flops) the virtuoso is getting crashed. What is causing this crash. Please guide me, is anything wrong with the way skill file is being executed.



Regards
Anand

    Hi Anand,

    that function probably belongs to Mentor, you have a much better chance getting this resolved by asking them.
