Generate Netlist from the Command Line

MenghanSun

Dear all,

I'm trying generate netlist from command line:

I used the following commands in CIW window:

simulator( 'spectre )

design( "libname" "cellname" "viewname")

createNetlist( ?recreateAll t)

It does generate the netlist, it didn't generate it in the directory I want:

it generates the netlist in the following directory:

/home/elecpg/menghansun/simulation/diffRecSim/spectre/schematic/netlist/netlist


I wish to generate the netlist in:

/d2/data/GFBCD013/013BCDlite/CDS/DL-000024/Rev14/OA/1P6M_9kA_1k_1p0f_SM/simulation/diffRecSim/spectre/schematic/netlist/netlist

/home/elecpg/menghansun is the home directory on the system, it seems to me that cadence wants to do all the things in this home drectory, for example, it always creates its CDS.log in its home directory.

Is there a way to generate netlist into the directory that we specify?

And, does the way I do this seem to be a reasonable way?

Thanks,

Menghan Sun

  • Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for your reply!

    I did a limit from the command line, and here is the result:

    """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

    [menghansun@a327-a15 psf]$ limit
    cputime      unlimited
    filesize     unlimited
    datasize     unlimited
    stacksize    10240 kbytes
    coredumpsize 0 kbytes
    memoryuse    unlimited
    vmemoryuse   unlimited
    descriptors  1024
    memorylocked 64 kbytes
    maxproc      126681
    """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""


    I don't think this causes any problems.

    Currently, I am running ocean script in two ways:


    (1) type ocean from command line, and start an ocean session, from there,

    load("myoceanscript")


    (2) from the command line, ocean < myoceanscript > ocean.log &

    (1) doesn't cause SIGTERM to spectre.

    (2) does cause SIGTERM to spectre.

    Does that mean anything to you?


    Thank you very much,

    Menghan Sun
