Shrink cell view during migration

kbhow

Hi,

Is there a way to shrink the cell view to certain resolution.

I was doing process migration from 45 to 65nm. After migrating and mapping all the via, inst and devices, noticed that the devices in new technology was obviously smaller than original tech file. In the other hand, shapes such as polygon, rect, path will remain the same.

Is there a way to do the shrinking for a cell view?

 

Regards,

How

  •  Hi How,

    VLM (Virtuoso Layout Migrate) should be part of your IC tools installation, it is enabled by having the correct license.  If you install using a control file with InstallScape then it may not have installed tools that you do not have licenses for, but the IC5141 and IC61 releases do contain the VLM tool. The license feature to look for is "Virtuoso_Layout_Migrate", the name is the same for either release, but the version or release number in the license file will be either 5.1 or 6.1

    Hope this answers your question,

    Lawrence.
