Importing GDS file in cadence

Selvaa over 14 years ago

Hi,

I would like to import gds file,which available in my server.

I have used import->stream option..

after I import I am getting "Error load : Cant access file "

I tried with few other items :

"Value of the option 'techfileName', defined in the template file,contains spaces,spaces not allowed."

I have to use Opus DB or ASCII Dump or Techfile.....?

If I try to import using OpusDB It says "FATAL (299): Stream out was unable to find a primary cell in the input database
Compiling Class 'layerDefinitions'.....
Compiling Class 'layerRules'...........

Thanks for your reply

Hi Selvaa

It looks like you might have specified a wrong path for your gds file. Would you please correct the path and retry?

Hi Selvaa

Do you see only a single black colour layer in the LSW? If yes, would you please try the following?

a. In ciw, go to "Tools->Technology File Manager"
b. In the small form that appears, select "Attach"
c. Attach your design lib to your tech lib

Best regards

Hi Selvakumar

I am unable to see the attachment. Please use the upload attachment function. There is a tab named "Option" when you reply to a message. Select the tab.

Hi Selvakumar

Thanks for the files. The gds file itself is the problem. It is empty. So it is expected that you get an empty layout.
