Tcl programs in virtuoso

bharath2k4er

 Hi,

     Is it possible to interact with cadence virtuoso with the help of tickle programs..? If yes, can you direct me to any of the example programs i can work with.

 

Thanks,

Bharath. 

  •  Hi Bharath,

     Yes, it is possible for the SKILL-based DFII session to interact with an external script or program; perhaps the easiest method is to use  Inter-Process Communication.  The SKILL functions for this begin with the prefix of ipc, such as ipcBeginProcess() for starting the external script or program.  I would suggest first looking in the documentation (Cadence Interprocess Communication SKILL Reference - Interprocess Communication SKILL Functions), using the above function perhaps as a starting place - likewise for the Online support site for any solutions.

    I hope that this helps you in getting started.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
