A question regarding CCSchangeCells.il ?

IC Layout

 Hai! I found a code which will change cells from one lib/view to another.. in cadence sourcelink ...

I am using cadence IC6X version.. and a IBM(90nm) PDK kit ..

The code is working fine when I tried to convert cells from 'analogLib' to  'gpdk090'..

But when I tried this code in changing cells from 'analogLib' to  'IBM' models it's not happening..

I thought this is because of the following reason.. the IBM PDK kit defines the following params for w(width), l(length), m(multiplier) as

wf(string type),(wff float type), lf(string type), (lfffloat type) and  mpl(int type)...

The params w, l, and m assigned as user defined params after running the code..

I tried to assign the w, l, and m values to the wf, lf and mpl ... the form displaying the values correctly(in schematic).. but when I attempt generate from source it is picking the transistors of default values but the form values remains unchanged.. (in the layout)..

I hope the problem is understandable.... If not I will provide some more information...

Can please some one guide me to achieve this............

  • Hi Andrew,

    I am now using the 2006 version of alInvokeCdfCallbacks.il.

    I just solved the following problem by one of you posts:
    *Error* PasCdfFormInit: argument #1 should be any user-defined (other) type (type template = "o")
    /forums/p/17081/1181192.aspx
    I call the function like the way you wrote: abInvokeCdfCallbacks(cvId ?callInitProc t ?useInstCDF t)

    Now I use the gpdk045 library.
    There is no problem when I set the properties of a transistor and call abInvokeCallbacks.
    However, when I try to do the same thing to a capacitor, it displays the following:
    *Error* PasCdfSetValue: argument #1 should be any user-defined (other) type (type template = "ogg") - nil

    Do you have any idea how to get rid of this error?

    Thanks in advance!
