Calibre GDS Exporting Issue

C2S NEHU
C2S NEHU 4 months ago

I have designed a custom IC Cadence Virtuoso (IC 6.1.8) with clean DRC and ARC reports on Calibre. Now before sending for tape-out we have to also include DRC and ARC reports for which I am trying to get all the generated reports in a dedicated directory that I have manually created, But while setting the Run Directory as my required directory for DRC in Calibre I am getting the following error:

virserver.tcl error: Invalid command: mgc_rve_export_layout_lcv "FinalChip_withdummy" "C2S0089_finalchip_withdummy" "layout" "GDSII" "/home/c2s/Design Tapeout Submission/Final_DRC_Report/C2S0089_finalchip_withdummy.gds"

Kindly assist me in getting past this. Thank you.

    Calibre is not a Cadence tool - both Calibre and the interface to it within Virtuoso come from Siemens EDA, and this error is coming from their tool.

    You would be better off asking this question either in a Siemens EDA forum or to their customer support.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew
