Different files formats needed for a complete IC and package design and verification flow

sidm

HI All,

Can anyone please let me know what are the different files (and their formats / extensions) required in a PDK to run a complete IC design flow in Virtuoso starting from schematic design to layout drc, pvs, quantus, voltus , voltus-fi, Electromagnetic simulations, package design ?

Or if I can be pointed to any document that explains all the different files formats needed to run the above flow that will be very helpful.

regards

    There's not really anything that completely covers this (it's a bit of a big question), but there is this useful document on developing PDKs for OA on support.cadence.com. After consulting that, if you need more detail, you will need to contact customer support or your account team.
